I’ve did a search in FAQ’s and checked the boards and can’t find a related subject. If I missed it and this thread needs to be deleted. Be my guest.
Issue:
I have read two opinions from the experts, regarding how to deal with time elements in novels. One says only spell it out always. Another says to do 12:30 p.m. only in narration, and twelve-thirty p.m. in dialogue.
I tend to lean toward the latter.
To those who would know: which is more appealing or widely accepted in the field?
Thanks,
