So, What Perspective Do You Like To Write In?

First Person = I
Second Person = You
Third Person = She or He
Buchanan Perspective = Fourth Dimensional Entity founded upon some variant of Literature at the Quantum Level (i.e., the book you're reading is just a shadow of the fourth dimension. In the fourth dimension, the Buchanan Perspective holds).

The Buchanan Perspective is so far above my humble brain; Pat Buchanan can only control my mind in small segments.

And thus, I write in the third person.

:P

I don't, erm, don't really have a perspective. My stories are in all types of ones. However, the second and the Buchanan Perspective I have never really...done. Buchanan Perspective is much too far out of my brain capacity, and the second perspective I just don't...relate to.

So, technically, er, technically speaking, I just do the first and third perspectives.

Buchanan perspective!

I dunno, really. Whatever perspective it sounds best in. I do like to tinker with combining first and second person. Fun.

I'll try anything!

Though admittedly, the Buchanan Perspective sounds a little bit out of my intellectual realm.... plus I didn't know it existed until about forty seconds ago.

But still! Where's a pencil?!

Hmm...I would have to say the B-perspective. I mean, isn't Pat the answer to everything? I use that answer on all my fill-in-the-blank questions at school.

First or 3rd. I'm trying to write a bit more in 1st but it's pretty hard. You swap the detail you lose for the personality of the character you gain, so it's pretty much worth it.

Toss up between first and third.
Got YWS? I do.

I tend to write best from third person, but I dabble in first person also.

Most of my really good short stories turn out being from a first person perspective, but I use third person as well. Whatever strikes my fancy is fine, really.

My first novel is totally gonna be in Buchanan perspective, though. :P

Third tends to happen without me noticing but lately, so does second. XD Although, that's entirely an accident. I wrote second inside of third...


But first person also suits me. It's just nasty, you know?

I like first and third. I switch around a lot between them. I change tenses too. Sometimes past sometimes present... I think my writing is getting to be very confused... :-D
