3rd person omniscient - An all-seeing narrator tells everything that happens in the story, including the thoughts and actions of each character. For example, “She tiptoed across the floor, her entire body tense as she fought to stay quiet.” When using this POV, you can’t provide the thoughts or feelings of other characters, but you can add your interpretation of the setting or events. 3rd person limited - A narrator recounts the events of the story but limits the perspective to one character. For instance, “I tiptoed across the floor, hoping not to disturb him.” Because the story is the truth according to this one character, their account of events could be unreliable. 1st person POV - A single character tells the story from their perspective. As another option, pick 3rd person omniscient if you want to share everything that’s happening in the story. Use 3rd person limited POV if you want to focus on one character but want enough distance from the story to add your own interpretations to events. Choose 1st person POV to get really close to the story. POV can change the entire perspective of the story, so choose wisely.
