The Buchanan Perspecitve threatens to cause my head to implode.

So I use third.

I'd write in first more often, because I like it, but all my main characters are guys and I haven't mastered the guy-sounding writing voice... yet.

I love writing in second person, but I'm not good at it.. so.. majority of my work is written in third, with a few exceptions being written in first. I've started in second and then accidently switched to third.. got too far.. so I just switched what I had in second to third. Like I said.. not good at writting second. ><

Usually, it's third person. Most of my stories are like that, but curretly I'm experimenting, and turned to first person.

I have to say, it is weird.

I think my writing is better in first, my third person is always a little boring and laborious to read.

I've always wanted to write something in 2nd person, but haven't yet. I plan to though. So far I vary between 1st and 3rd person.

I prefer first person. It's such a fun POV, but I usually find myself writing in third person because of location and character issues.

Third person, definitely! Easier to show relations between the character and the world around them, I think.

My quasi-quantum synapse situated in the fourth dimension rocks at Buchanan perspective, but unfortunately I lost touch with it when it fell into a wormhole...

On a more serious note, I like to use third and first POVs. However I tend to fall into the 'I did this...I did that...' trap without realising, so I prefer third.

Y'all are losers. I write in seventeenth perspective. Take THAT, Pat.

I said third person, but it really depends on the..."feel" I'm getting for the story.

For example, my Chronicles of Magic: Daughter of the Mystics story I was working on last year was written in first person. It felt right to write it that way. That might be because I ended up turning it in to a very fictional memoir (I only wish I could have a brother who was turned in to a tiger and is my animal familiar who's name is Sereven, but sadly that's not true), but when I started writing it it felt -right- to be writing it in first person.

I think I tried writing something I started writing a few months ago, before I came up with Archer's Legend in first person, but it didn't feel right to me so I switched to third person. And then I came up with Archer's Legend.

I voted for third person, but as I said it really depends on the feel of the story. I could even go as far as to say it depends on how the main character is "speaking" to me, but I don't know if I can do that. XD

Liz doesn't particularily have a preference but then again Liz doesn't have anything...
Liz is just kind of here and there.

BUCHANAN FTW!!

Third person. I tend to switch between the perspectives of my characters a lot, especially with the main character and his best friend. I actually have five main characters and four minor characters that are always with the main character group. I want to be able to tell all their stories, and I find it a little more difficult and awkward if it's in 1st person. 1st person gives you less freedom to move around from one character's head to another in the same chapter.

Buchanan Perspective FTW!!
