Point of View Challenge 12 Years, 9 Months ago Karma: 19
Hi! I have been reading a writing book called "Writing Magic" by Gail Carson Levine and one of the chapters on point of view gave me an idea for a challenge.

So you, a writer that may or may not have written and posted a few stories, are probably familiar with your own writing style. You may write your stories in third person, focusing on everything Kagome does. Or maybe you write first person from Sesshomaru's point of view. You may not have realized it, but there is one way of writing that you are used to, that you use without even thinking of it.

This challenge is to bring you away from that, to make you try something new.

So the rules are simple. You have to write choose two of the povs (points of view) below or more and write a 200 word oneshot/chapter. You can make it into a stand alone oneshot or you can combine them into a collection of oneshots.

~First person(using I, me,we) from Kagome's POV
~First person from Sesshomaru's POV
~First person from the POV of someone else(EX: Sango, Miroku, Rin, a chair)
~Third person(she, he, they) with a focus on Kagome (Only telling what she feels and not what others do)
~Third person with a focus on Sesshomaru(Only telling what he feels)
~Third person omnipotent (Able to see what everyone is feeling and thinking.)

And if you really really want a challenge:
~Second person (You)
I don't think I have ever seen a fic with second person, so you might be the first! Extra karma for this!

Anyway, the lovely r0o let me use one of her banners.


Have fun and remember to post the links to your stories here, both of them if they are separate or just the first one if they are together. And tell me which ones you did please!

I really really love this idea Riku!

Generally I write fics in 3rd person omni, and that's what I see written the most as well. I've got a new story I'm working on that will be Kagome/Sess POV for the first 2 chapters so I'll definitely enter them here once they're finished. ^_^

I will like to try this. I am not very good at first person, but I would like to try. I have written a few stories using the second p.o.v. But that was on quizilla, years ago.

Here's my entry.

It's in second person POV, and it was quite interesting to write. It now has a second chapter to fit the challenge's requirements.

Haha, Riku. I've been thinking about continuing it and switching POVs every chapter, but I wasn't really sure...

It would be interesting to try, something that I haven't seen anyone do before. Well, not in this way anyway. I wish you good luck!

Re:Point of View Challenge 12 Years ago Karma: 8
I have two questions,
First do the chapters/one-shots have to be exactly 200 words or can they be longer?
Second can you use "First person from the POV of someone else" for two different people or do you have to use two separate sections?


Ps. I usually write in omnipotent or semi-omnipotent so I think it would be fun to write strictly from someone's pov. Thanks for the challenge.

Re:Point of View Challenge 12 Years ago Karma: 19
Thank you Opal-Dreams for bringing up something that others might also be confused about.

For this challenge, each chapter or oneshot must be 200 words or more. If it is 199 words you are out of luck.

As for the requirements, each separate section marked with a ~ is point of view you can use. All you have to do is use two of the different ~ points of view and you can get the banner.

If you have anymore questions or if I didn't explain it well enough, please tell me.
I hope this helps.

ah I'll have to give this a shot. I NEVER write first person because I think it's unwieldy and can so easily comes out juvenile. I guess I have to give it a shot. just might take me a bit of time to come up with a story.

Hello again everyone,

I'm really sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do we collect the banner? >_<
I'm worried that I've missed something. It's my first time responding to a challenge on the site so I have no idea.

Hey, don't worry. Everyone has to start somewhere. Just right click on it, go to copy image location and paste it wherever you want it. If you want it in your profile go to edit details on your profile, go to where you want it (main or about me), then click on the picture of a tree. Paste in the image URL box and hit insert and you are done.

Anyways, big thanks to everyone who has participated! I love all of your stories.

First chapter is up, and it's 1st person, Kagome's POV.

This fic is rated MA...because, well, you just never know.
