I'm working on a short story (maximum of 6,000 words) and realized that I will need to have two point-of-view (POV) characters. Let's call them Greg and Jeff. This became necessary when I saw that Greg, whom I had been using as the POV character, would have to leave a crucial scene for a moment but the story needed to continue in that place. I couldn't use Jeff as the POV character for the whole story because Greg still needs a scene after he leaves the room. I hesitate to have a story of 10 scenes or so with only 1 using a different POV character. What is a good mix of scenes for two POV characters in one short story?
