/lit/ - Literature

I'm currently doing some writing, and I was wondering about the usage of "you" in a novel. It's sort of a story about making a story, and in the beginning, I do "talk to the audience" a little bit, but it's only in the opening line. Would using "you" in this instance seem strange? I rewrote it using "he" for the second one, but they're both supposed to be the reasoning for why a character said something.
