Why Authors Should Be Speaking on Their Books … Their Expertise – by Judith Briles…

Chris The Story Reading Ape's avatarChris The Story Reading Ape's Blog

on The Book Designer:

I never desired to be an author; nor did I envision that I would be a speaker.

Choosing the Right Viewpoint and Tense for Your Fiction [With Examples] – by Ali Luke…

Chris The Story Reading Ape's avatarChris The Story Reading Ape's Blog

on Aliventures site:

Who’s telling your story?

Perhaps the choice is easy and obvious: you’re writing from a particular character’s viewpoint in the first person (“I”) and the whole story is from their perspective.

Or perhaps it’s trickier than that. You’ve got a story to tell involving multiple characters, and you need to make some choices.

The point of view (POV)or viewpoint is the angle the story’s being told from. For instance, in Emma Donaghue’s Room, the point of view character is 5-year-old Jack.

The story might be told in the first person (“I”), second person (“you”), or third person (“s/he”). It can also be told in past tense or present tense, which I’ll come onto in the second part of this post.

What Viewpoint Should You Use for Your Story?

Character Quotes from Set for Love by Dellani

dellanioakes's avatarBooks & Entertainment Network

character-quotes-imageBern walked Kennedy to the shop once more, giving her another kiss.

“There are advantages to working with your boyfriend,” Sterling said with a sigh. “I could stand to start my day and end my lunch with a kiss from a handsome man.”

“Sorry, ma’am,” Bern said with a sorrowful smile. “I’m taken. And I see by that rock on your finger that you are too.”

“The pregnant belly wasn’t a clue?”

He made a face, squinting. “Not so much. A lady can do that on her own with the right contribution.”

Sterling giggled, flipping him off as he headed out.

“Oh, such rude finger gestures from a pristine pregnant lady! You’ve just scarred your child for life,” he teased, pointing at her.

Sterling laughed and threw a pin cushion at him.
