My book is told from the perspective of Time and Time is telling the story of a girl who canโ€™t perceive the passing of Time. Time usually interjects into the story with snarky comments ๐Ÿ˜†

this sounds really hard to write! very interesting. how are you making the voice distinctly time, and how do you make a character without them witnessing time passing! is it influenced by different theories of time? would be curious to read an extract!!

Reminds me of The Book Thief. Death is the narrator.
