Buchanan, most definitely. It encompasses everything, and then some!

I usually write in the omniscient point of view, but that's not represented in this poll... but the closest thing is third person

Buchanan Perspective is the only perspective. Because first is annoying to write, second confuses me, but omniscient is cool to, I don't like to give my characters privacy, I occasionally don't let the reader know what the mysterious person is thinking though *evil laugh* But, still Buchanan is ruler of all writing. :smt021 (Buchanan is the one with the hammer.)

My stories always change perspectives as the focus on characters change For example, in "The Edge of a Straight Razor" all parts focused on Jacob he would narrate, while Old Detective John Mills I would follow with third person narration, so when I finally changed into first person with him, it would be more of an impact. I also like to go first person with small characters. To follow on the example, one of the victim's mothers had a small monologue in a crucial part of the story.

But, the truth is, I'm best when I'm writing in first person perspective.
there are many problems in our times
but none of them are mine

I'm best with third person, I like it the most as well. First person is a close second, though.

I much prefer third person.

My mind boggles at Pat Buchanan perspective.
