First or Third? · 2:17am Nov 2nd, 2016
Hey all! Quick question for ya: if I were to write a non-Fluffy centered chapter, would you guys prefer first person, like the two Kaye chapters were, or would you prefer third person, where everything is more 'factual' from a narrator's standpoint? Going to work on the chapter after that one, so I'll still be working. Might even make it a double-update, considering. We'll see. All depends on how quickly y'all vote.
"Like" for First Person (Like Fluffy/Glenn has been narrating.)
"Like" for Third Person (Most traditional stories. The "all-knowing narrator" style.)
Are these questionnaires going to become a regular thing? There's no problem in getting some inspiration from your audience, just remember to be careful because if you let them control too much then you will just end up writing yourself into a corner.
4281258 No, they at least SHOULDN'T become a regular thing. These kind of chapters may happen multiple times, and I want to know what to do whenever they come up, that's all.
4281276 Fair enough.
I read with my phone so the "Like" buttons don't work well. I personaly think that a change of perspective can throw the story off pace, so continuing in first person is probably the best.
4281454 Alright. I just wasn't sure if it would throw people off if I stuck with 1st person when not having it be Fluffy/Glenn who was talking, so thank you for your input!
Considering that the entire story (bar the intro) has been in first person — especially since that includes Crystal's PoV chapter(s?) — I think suddenly jumping to third person would just be kind of pointless and confusing.
