Writing in Different Tenses and POVs
This standalone lecture will cover the various ways in which tense and POV can be utilized to a narratives benefit. Third person past tense is the standard format for major publication—what happens when you deviate from these constraints? Lecture topics cover:
the tenses and their functions
past vs present
omniscient third vs. POV alternating
limited POV vs expansive POV
2nd person my beloved: reviled for being too powerful
and more!
Purchase includes:
lecture
discussion
exercises
Note: The standalone lecture series is less forma than B/I/B (which as many of you know, is already informal)! What this mostly means is though I will take questions in discussion it’s meant to be more round table than B/I/B. I also intend to introduce short writing exercises to these classes—you’ll never have to share, but there might be the opportunity to write!
