Probably in fall sometime I'll run another one of these - if past participants could say something about the classes that would be cool.

I like them, but I'm biased.

I see POV like a camera lens - maybe because I'm a film guy. But I do think in terms of medium shots, long shots, and close-ups. The narrative distance created between the writer and the character is fascinating, and deeply affects storytelling.

Week 1 topic: POV

A couple of spots left.
I'll be sending out the details on the first exercise next week. Lemme know if you want in with this fun bunch.
