Anyways, I have been slowly been rebuilding my fan work from the ground up. I've begun rewriting fan characters and jotting down notes for fan fiction ideas for said characters. One such idea is give most of these characters a personal story which delves into their past and leads up to their introduction into the story. While writing ideas at a relatives (because my materials are at home), I came about an idea to do a first person prologue that leads into a third person in the first chapter. Throughout high school though, I was always told to never ever EVER switch from one point of view to another; the story should stay in first or third all through. There are always exceptions to these rules sometimes though... So I'm curious, would it truly be wrong to switch from first person in the prologue, to third in the rest of the chapters? Basically, because it's mostly notes, my idea was to have the character discuss their thoughts on where they've wound up in these five years. (E.G. "I never expected myself to be on some crazy adventure fighting ninja robot cats with a blue hedgehog, but after these two years battling monsters and aliens, I realized this was reality.") And from there Chapters 1 - ?? would describe their years in review in third person. And uh, I've never considered myself great at first person. So far, with the few sentences I've written, I'm not fully satisfied. Any tips? Edited by SuperShadowgal, Feb 12 2010, 02:39 PM.
