    Chronicles XD I'm still laughing at "What the crap?" XD


    First person? Do an introduction to the character. That's what I normally do, or just talk out loud as the character and write down what you say. Makes you look like a moron but it works :D

    I know when I read "What the carp?" I started laughing XD

    My brothers already call me a ****** so I don't need something else for them to call me a ******.But I'll do that when I'm alone.I need to find a name for the character though.Kentaro is his first name but I need a last name.

    Just start by introducing the setting and the character, like a diary entry or something...

    Example: There once was a small town that lay hidden, deep within the mountains. Many small houses surrounded a large field of grass known to many as the "Horses Meadow". The village appeared to be deserted, or so many thought. A small house sat on the corner of one street, looking much filthier than all of the rest. The windows were shattered and the walls were crumbling. Unfortunately, this was my home.

    BAM! (Emril, lol...)

    yush I'm bored right now -_-

    hmm... Shueisha? O.o

    I tend to only write in first person, I find it easier to not sound clichic and trite...

    Two Sides to Every Story I gave up on that one, just got bored of it ><

    And this one, I got perfect score for this by the way XD

    Shiki,that was very good.I liked it.


    I was actually thinking of starting the story as:

    Hi,my names Kentaro-insert last name here-.I'm a regular high school 15 year old.Nothing out of the ordinary about me.Like other 15 year old guys I worry about girls,video games and other things but that's not important.My father works at a clinic.He actually owns it ever since my grandfather passed away.


    And the rest I still have to think about it.How is that?Comments please.

    It's a bit like my intro on Two sides to Every Story... Think it needs a little more detail. Apart from that t's good.

    Advice on first person? Well, the best advice I would give is to learn how to write autobiographies. Really, a first person isn't too different from them just recounting past events in their lives, unless it's in the present tense, then I don't really have a clue.

    But if you want an idea of the first person perspective, Mark Twain's Huckleberry Fin was narrated in the first person, and a lot of American comic books are set up so that in some parts of the story, the main character is narrating the events in first person, sort of an internal dialog or a journal of one's life being in the future.
