POV exercise

The Point Of View exercise was very confusing at first because I was unsure of the different point of views. I wasn't sure between the Third person close and the third person omniscient. I did know that my story was in third person omniscient.

It was very difficult to change my story into different views. the only view that was easy was dialogue and third person close(once I found out what it meant.) To change my story from third to first person was difficult. First person reliable was not to hard, but when I had to make my reliable character unreliable it was extremely difficult. I had to switch around the whole main character to make her fit into the point of view.

The exercise did help me though. It taught me how to write in different points of view and I also learned or re-learned what the different types of point of view's are called.
