  2. CHOICES ABOUT THE NARRATOR Who tells the story?

  3. Point of View and Narrator • Point of View refers to the vantage point from which a story is told. • Point of view is created by a writer’s choice of narrator. • Narrator is the voice that tells the story. • Is the narrator a character in the story? Or an outside observer? • Choices about point of view and narrator influence a story’s tone, as well as what you know and how you feel about its characters.

  4. First Person Point of View • A main or minor character in the story • Refers to him- or herself as I or me • Presents his or her own thoughts, feelings, and interpretations • Lacks direct access to the thoughts of other characters • Creates a subjective tone

  5. First Person Point of View • May feel connected to a first-person narrator because he or she seems to be talking directly to you. • But, consider the source: • Is the narrator trustworthy or unreliable? • How might the narrator’s opinions of other characters affect what he or she says about them?

  6. Third-Person Limited • Is not a character in the story but an outside observer • Zooms in on the thoughts and feelings of one character – usually the protagonist • Creates an objective tone

  7. Third-Person Limited • Because you learn only one character’s thoughts, you don’t get the big picture. • Understand the limitations: • How might the character’s thoughts affect readers’ impressions of characters and events? • What more would an omniscient narrator be able to convey?

  8. Third-Person Omniscient • Is not a character in the story but an outside observer • Is “all knowing”; has access to the thoughts and feelings of all characters • May create a very detached story

  9. Third-Person Omniscient • When an omniscient narrator tells the story, you become “all knowing,” too • Take advantage of the insights: • How do different characters react to the same event? • How do the characters perceive each other?

  10. CHOICES ABOUT TIME How will the events unfold over time?

  11. Foreshadowing • Use of hints to build suspense about what will happen next • Shots of foreboding setting or statements that imply lurking danger….. • Creates “edge of your seat” effects • Look for repeated details or characters who make important statements or behave in unusual ways

  12. Flashback • An account of an event or a conversation that happened before the beginning of the story • Interrupts the chronological order of events • Reveals information that can help readers understand the characters or the current situation • Look for phrases that signal a shift in time
