Regarding an example of this method in genre fiction (sci-fi), you might wish to look at Delany's "Dhalgren."
Without trying to lecture, one must ask, "Is there a reason to have a section (or the whole piece), reflect storytelling that utilizes this narrative technique?"
Happy pecking. (If you're not a touch typist.)

Thanks, Don, that's most helpful. I'll see if I can find either or both of those books in the MR library.
With regard to your question: I think we may be looking at two different questions
- So far as the author is concerned - I have no idea why she wants to use this technique
- So far as I am concerned - I'm not her editor, I'm merely the ebook designer. I see it as my job to do the best I can to meet the author's wishes.
