Too cool for subject

I'm not sure if this is possible in HTML... but maybe you could put the passages in 1st person as narrower blocks (i e widen the left and right margins a little), the same way one narrows the paragraphs of quoted material in nonfiction or in a thesis? I find that makes for a visual difference without being as intrusive as italics...

Yeah, I had a crack at that, but, in the 1st chapter, there's a constant changing of voice; something like Naomi, then Blair, then Jim, then back to Naomi, then Blair then Naomi then Jim again, all 1st person. - so every section in chapter 1 would be indented.

I think Starwatcher's right and it's probably best to just leave it looking all the same and let the voices speak for themselves... ::shrug::

::Quiet squeak:: I don't know...!

Thanks for the advice, though - I'm glad I happened along here on a break and saw your comment; I'm not getting an email heads-up from LJ so lawd knos what else I'm missing. )o:
