Have we changed venue?               I'm dropping back in after a hiatus of nearly ten years...I stopped posting       because I'd just run out of things to say. I never did learn how to write,       either.              I took up one of my old story beginnings last week and started working on it       again, and I got bogged down about two pages in. This time, I identified a       problem in my style that I never noticed before, and right now I'm thinking       about how to overcome it.              The problem is that everything I write is from exactly the same point of view       and when the story requires a change, I can't do it. I've been looking over       whatever fiction books happened to be sitting around and studying, much more       carefully than ever        before, how different point of view effects are achieved.               --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
