Point Of Views!

When you go to write something people usually just write what comes to their mind at the time. But what you really need to think about is the Point Of View, otherwise known as POV. There are three main points of view. These include:
Third Person Omniscient Point Of View- The narrator knows what all the characters in the story are thinking and feeling.
Third Person Limited Point Of View- The narrator knows what a character is thinking and feeling and only the actions of other characters.
First Person Point Of View- The character speaks about themselves, their thoughts, actions, etc. (for example: "I walked down the stone pathway thinking what have I just gotten myself into?")
When deciding upon your point of view in the story it is crucial that you stick with it. This is so that your story makes sense through out the entire thing. For example, if you weren't sticking to this plan, it would turn out like this:
"I walked through the double doors, that lead to the classrooms at my local school, thinking about the earlier events. Then he walked up to a door with the two white numbers, 27 bolted into the front side of the wooden door showing the number of the classroom, his face looking unsure. The boy walked into the classroom and watched all the fellow classmates stare back at him as he moved to his seat feeling uneasy."
Even though this might all go together, storyline wise, the narration doesn't fit. Therefore making it more than one Point Of View and it is wrong. So when writing a storyline think of what you want. Once you have chosen your selected Point Of View then start writing your story. Remember that through out the story line, your chosen Point Of View. There isn't much more to say other than that be wise when choosing your point of view, since you will be staying with that throughout the entire storyline. Until next time!
