Choosing your voice
by: Audrey

Whether you choose to write in first or third person depends on many factors.

There is a summary of the choices at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrative_mode

The one you choose will depend on many factors. After you've read the article, try writing in the voice you think makes most sense. If you find it is working for you, carry on. If not, try a different voice.

I wish you all the best as you continue with your work.
