Making Sense of Point of View


Transform Your Fiction: 1

Learn about the various narration styles in commercial fiction and the restrictions that come with different perspectives.

Do readers know which character’s head they’re in?

​This fiction-editing guide helps editors and authors understand the different narration styles in commercial fiction.

I teach you how to recognize viewpoint, and hold it, so that readers are immersed in your story and your characters' experiences of the world you've created.
​
​Throughout, examples of good and problematic practice are given to illustrate the learning. 
Topics include:
​
>  Viewpoint defined
>  ​The different narration styles
>  Head-hopping
>  How to show non-POV character emotion and hold viewpoint
>  Motivational viewpoint drops
>  ​The terminology of storytelling
