First-person, third-person, limited, omniscient—what’s the difference between different points of view, and which is best for your story? The perspective from which your story is told shapes how readers understand and connect with your writing. We’ll learn about various POV techniques and experiment with writing the same story through different points of view. By the end of this session, you’ll leave with the tools needed to confidently choose—and master—the perfect voice for your project. Come ready to play with perspective and unlock your story’s true potential!
