I have found what everyone has said here very useful. but I was wondering what every one thought about multiple POVs all in first person?

Snapper started the topic Catching Trout in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
This has nothing to do with catching trout. No, but it has to do with our hook. The first sentence, page, paragraph, chapter.
I’ve lost he fine art of coming up with a good hook, so, if you all have any tips, that would be most appreciated. In addition, if you have a book that has a great hook/starter sentence, then I would be glad to see those…[Read more] -

Alright. Hopefully we’re good now. Can you find any way to improve it? Does it attract you? (why or why not?)

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic What Can I Do? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 11 months ago
Yes, I decided to go with a omniscient, narrator sort of voice throughout the book, but who knows how that will work. Here’s a bit more, and yes this is wordy @daeus, but I sort of did that on purpose, and sort of not.
Now, I hope you know that twins mustn’t always look alike, and in fact most times are quite different, so please do not suppose…[Read more]

“This is a story about two children. Actually, it’s story about two children and a mischievous and slightly sulky door, but I mustn’t get ahead, must I?
At birth these two children were given the names Nicholas Wilbur Rothelburg and Scarlett Jaylie Rothelburg. They also happened to have been given these names at almost the exact same time, on the…[Read more] -

@daeus Thanks. That makes is clearer. I should try one of those sometimes.
@hope is dauntless, and a little weird

@bluejay Yah, I cried too, at the beginning, when I knew his parents would die cause how else would he get stranded in the woods, when he had to choose between Elliot and his ‘family’ and even at the end when he found Elliot again. I wasn’t expecting that, but I guess they weren’t happy to leave it like the old one, where he never sees them again.…[Read more]

Julia R. replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien: I have written a short Choose-your-own-Adventure story in second person. It was fun, but incredibly difficult! I can’t imagine doing 2nd person in any other way than a CYOA. That’s one thing I never liked about CYOA’s. Sometimes, they would say things like, “If you decide to chase after the criminal, go to page 8. If you…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic Do You Have a Blog/Website? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay, so I really like reading other people’s blogs/websites. My favorites are You Write Fiction, Writing in the Light, and Writefury. So I was looking for other Christian blogs to read, mostly about writing, and I wondered if anyone on here has one.
Now, I will not allow you to say, Oh, I know this girl who has a friend who has a good one.…[Read more] -
Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
I used to ONLY write third person, and I had no idea if it was omnipotent, or omnipresent, or whatever. Still don’t quite remember those. @Daeus what are those things?
But now I write mostly in first person. I like focusing on one person personally better, and it lets me put in weird thoughts that I probably wouldn’t if it was third person.
But…[Read more]
