#2: Initial revision
In a novel you could make a _Book One_ vs _Book Two_ split. This is a stronger division than a chapter and is common in longer novels. I've seen plenty that change the POV this way. It's also used for generational changes. Though sometimes it's done without much change at all. But you're writing a short story. Make your change after a small division such as a line of dots or pound signs across the page with line breaks after. Be sure to state the transition. > As George left the village in search of adventure, he set into motion events not only with his travels but also back at the village. His mother was so upset at his leaving that... Another method would be for the narrator to address the reader. This would only work in certain stories. > Once George decided to rescue the knight, it was all he could think about. How to get past the dragon, how to scale the wall, how to exit the castle. Explaining himself was one task too many, so I will tell you the rest of this tale.
