There was a time I didn't believe I could write 1st person, but when I developed this character it just seems the right choice.<br />Nancy<br /><a href="http://nrwilliams.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">N.

I usually write limited 3rd but I'm writing my latest in First. it's annoying because there's stuff I (the writer) know that the character doesn't and it's tricky finding a way to get the info to the reader.<br /><br />My POV character is also female so i have to access my feminine side, but what if I can't find my way back, Inception style? Dangerous gig, this writing.mooderinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01523337588830695638noreply@blogger.com
