One Writing Book That Changed My (Writing) Life
Nine Month Novel Week 7: Digging Into Close Third POV
Welcome to the Nine Month Novel series! You can either use this series of posts and videos every Friday as a track to write your own novel (in around nine months), or you can simply watch each one individually and receive encouragement in whatever area the video covers for the week. All 78 of our writing videos (which include the series for the Nine Month Novel, Six Month Memoir, and the ReVision Experience) are available to paying subscribers anytime. Now for this week’s writing chat!
Choosing a voice to tell a story in is one of the hardest decisions for me whenever I start writing a new novel. I have a love for well-written first person (as I think I mentioned last week) but am also keenly aware of the challenges and limitations that first person POV has to offer the writer.
Enter James Wood’s book, How Fiction Works.
