1st Person

Mon Mar 30, 2009, 5:31 PM
I'm working on an old writing project that is, weirdly, practically begging to be re-written in first person. I almost never write in first person, and I'm just questing for opinions on it. While I used to read a lot of first person YA stories (*coughAnimorphsStillRockscough*), it doesn't seem to have a very good reputation. Like I've heard of people browsing in a book store and putting books down if they're told in first person.

Any thoughts on this? Do you like first person, or hate it? Why? And do you have any examples of first person done really well?

I'm going to try and write the story as well as I can in whatever POV feels right in the end. I'm just looking for some fun writing conversation with you guys :)

Oh, and hey, there's this totally awesome new webcomic out. All the cool kids are reading it and you should, too: [link]

HAH! Are you serious? That's funny.
What language do you speak? I got the name from a fantasy series I used to read.

Thanks for the watch! :)

I speak Polish. As for me it's rather sad and drama than funny but oh well XDDDDDD

You're welcome! Very nice gallery! :D

We’ve watched while the stars burned out,
And creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.

I adopted a Razputin Aquato chibi from The-Den.
