Deep POV always feels like I'm over or under-doing it...or intruding. So, I absolutely love all the help I can get!

What the protagonist is very familiar with has to be explained and described to the reader without it seeming like the POV character is giving a tour in a foreign country! Your example of how more mundane information can be communicated by going shallower is so very useful. Thank you.

Deep POV is tricky! I love that sometimes the solution is to go shallower!!!

Author intrusion in deep pov is insidious. It sneaks in no matter how disciplined you are about eradicating it lol At least, I find it to be. Dialogue is my preferred workaround. It's always more interesting for readers to discover information that way than by having the character tell the reader info through internal thoughts. IMHO.

Yes! I am in a crit group that focuses specifically on deep pov because it can be so hard to see it in your own work. It's also super helpful to have another pair or eyes to say -- I want you to go deeper here - I want to know why they're doing this now, etc.

Always look forward to opportunities to geek out about deep POV.
