“I've written short stories in first person, but you have so much more control writing in third person. Third person, you know what everybody's thinking. First person is very limiting, and I could never sustain a first person novel before.” ThinkingKnowsWritingFirstsPersonsStoriesNovelWrittenThirdsShort StoryFirst PersonThird PersonThinking First Author:Tamora Pierce
“First person allows deeper insight into the protagonist's character. It allows the reader to identify more fully with the protagonist and to share her world quite intimately. So it suits a story focused on one character's personal journey. However, first person shuts out insights into other characters.” WorldFirstsPersonsCharacterStoriesJourneyShareReaderDeeperInsightFocusedSuitsFirst PersonProtagonistsPersonal Journey Author:Juliet Marillier
