And, a brief example of what Point of View (POV) means:

First Person: “I couldn’t believe what I saw.”
Second Person: “You won’t believe what you see.”
Third Person: “Seeing the miracle didn’t make him believe it.”

For the Readers’ poll:

3rd Person got 54.6%
1st Person got 45.4%
2nd Person got 0%

For the Writers’ poll:

3rd Person — 60%
1st Person — 30%
2nd Person — 10%

Now, this week’s poll—What Kind of Posts Do You Want to See on This Blog?

Naturally, multiple votes are possible; and, the “Other” space is there for answers I haven’t put in the poll…

Friday Poll ~ What Writer’s Resources Do You Use?

Let’s start with the results of the first of last week’s polls—What Are You Writing Now?

Either there aren’t many folks writing now or the poll wasn’t interesting enough to answer :-)

[Edit after I published this, from a Twitter friend:
“writers don’t want to share. The book is to be published but the Idea before that is kept close.”]

Here are the five responses:

“Nothing; just finished the publishing stage”

“microfiction expanded”

“Compilation of Sermons to Share”

“urban fantasy/science fiction”

“my blog”

And, for the second of last week’s polls—What Are You Planning to Write?

Here are the responses:

“a crime novel with historical background”

“micro novel”

“more books set in my universe”

“Sci-Fi/Dectective”

~~~~~~~~~

Now, perhaps, this week’s poll will be of more interest—What Writer’s Resources Do You Use?

As always, you can choose multiple answers and use the “Other” space: plus, once you vote, you can make a Comment:
