#31: What Most Writers Get Wrong About Point of View


Listen Later

Of all the things I see tripping writers  up, point of view is the most common and persistent.

It's one of the most misunderstood elements of writing.

It's also one of the most essential things to get right.

On today’s episode of Writer Unleashed, we’ll explore:

  • 3 common missteps writers make about point of view
  • What point of view is…and what it isn’t. 
  • Why first, second, and third-person has virtually nothing to do with point of view. 
  • When to use multiple points of view. And when not to. 
  • And 4 simple techniques to crafting your story’s most riveting and compelling point of view.
