Re: POV & Character Thoughts
by A Non-Existent User
Considering that the number one complaint creative writing professors and workshop members always have about my work is "inconsistent and difficult to follow POV", I suppose I am not qualified to comment.

But I just can't help myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Bigsmile*

P.O.V. is way too easy for some writers to control. Myself, I tend to wander all over the map. Try to keep in mind, though, two of my favorite writers are Robert Heinlein and Robert Jordon. When criticized on his jittery P.O.V. shifts in books like Glory Road, Heinlein is rumored to have replied, "P.O.V.? What P.O.V.?"
