Thanks for all the help y'all!

I will definitely take the points into consideration and try to make this work out! :D

I am pretty much completely inside my character's head, as will the reader.  I was thinking that my character would just have to learn of everything after the fact and the reader would learn at the same time.  I may still ponder this, though.

Bits from other POVs; well, it depends on your story, but I'm inclined to think of that as not playing fair.

Why do you feel that way?  Just curious.

Author Craft / First person POV question

So here's the conundrum:

I'm currently working on a first person piece.  There are things I think it is essential the reader knows, but that my main character wouldn't know or wouldn't find out until much later.  What is the best way to write this?  Would it be best to do very short chapters from the other character's POV, so the reader finds out what I want him / her to?  How have others handled this?

I work on my own writings while at work.  Hell, I'm at work right now, posting here.  I think as long as I get my other work done and aren't goofing around, they shouldn't really say anything.
