HOOK
Yea we talking about a point of view
Because it’s all about a point of view
Yea we talking about a point of view
Because it’s all about a point of view
First person second person third person
First person second person third person
First person second person third person
First person second person third person
The outlook of narrator is the point of view
First person second person third person
The way they see or tell the story is the point of view
First person second person third person
First person second person third person
Yea we talking about that point of view
First person second person third person
Yea we talking about that point of view
The point of view is the view point in which
The reader observes the story in
And how they take it in
First person point of view is in use
When a character tells a story
Using I me, my, or mine
You will know it every time
If they using these words
The second person point of view
Use the words you or yours
And that is purposely done
to bring you closer to the author
it’s almost as if they make part of the action
now action
because the third person is on the outside looking in
third person limited enters one-person mind
third person omniscient opens up to the reader
and that’s just how it is
I’m teaching you point of view in the point of view I see it
First person second person third person
It aunt hard to get
I’m teaching you point of view in the point of view I see it
First person second person third person
It aunt hard to get it
