First Person Point of View, (POV), Me, Myself and I. 08/22/2010

How arrogant I was on the 17th of this month to have written in my last blog post here, ‘I have finished the short story.’
My story is in a mess, but once finished it will be a so much better, I will have learned so much.
I might have time once I finish this to get into my kitchen and do some, chef work.

I am realizing that in one years’ time, I will most likely be embarrassed to read it, if I learn as fast over the next few months as I have learned, during the last few days as a result of sharing the story with friends and asking for constructive criticism.

I have been guided to use more dialogue, been shown my excess of repetition of words and commas and excessive long sentences. Wise words from fiends, helped me summarize what my writing is about.

Switching point of view mid way in a sciene is a mistake I am making, so editing is required.
There is so much information, I need to learn. What wonderful friends to have shown me this.

There are lots of books I can reference, even web programs and tonight trying to knock this point of view into shape, once and for all I found this excellent example of writing in first person point of view.

So Click here -> Me Myself, I, to read Me, Myself and I: Writing First Person Point of View by Cheryl Wright.

I hope you find it as helpful as I did.
