SYNOPSIS

Deciding the point of view (e.g. use of first/second/third person, involved vs. omniscient vs. detached style of narration) for what you want to write can often be hard. If you have struggled with such issues, then Pivot can help you ease the process. This workshop will clarify the different types of narrative perspective that are possible as well as give pointers on how to choose the form most appropriate for your fictional/non-fictional story.

This workshop is open to writers aged 16 and above who are fluent in English, and who are new or seasoned writers of fiction/non-fiction.
