Hi,
i'm shifting my novel into a "proper" manuscript format [in that, i've picked one that seems legit from all the dozens of sites that give slightly confliting info on formatting requirements] and i'm just wondering about formatting info about a date shift.
my novel occurs over a month or so and scenes shift from day to day or sometimes time to time in a day. one site says for chapters you can put the date/location in a chapter subtitle,
TIA

Chapter 1
June 1, 10:30AM
which is good, but the logical flow to me means that some chapters might cover several days, so how do i format that? I'm following the convention of using a centred hash as a para break, should i omit that and just put the date centred, or what?June 1, 10:30AM
