Fictional Narrative Basics - Point of View
Unit Completion Date: End of Week 5
[ Previous ][ 5 ][ Next ]
When we begin to workshop each other's work, we are going to need more precise language than the notions of narrator and narratee. Oftentimes, these notions will provide a strong first draft that nonetheless has some aspect of the story's telling that isn't quite working, and we will need a language for communicating this.

In your high school and college writing and literature classes, many of you have already absorbed a great deal of the vocabulary required for talking about point of view. Part of our job as a class in this unit is to collect and structure that information so that we will be able to use it.

Read through the point of view examples in the class craftbook (provided by your classmates from the assignment 5 in the "Beginning" section. Look over not only the examples provided, but also your classmates' notes as well. Assemble as complete a definition of the aspects of point of view as you can. Keep this assignment to about a half a page. Please post this exercise in the Point of View section of the class craftbook.
