Many new writers, especially, struggle with the concept of POV, but if you put yourself in your character's shoes and write from that perspective, it helps to define what can and cannot be expressed in that person's POV. It can be hard to explain, so your example of method POV to method acting is very helpful.

I mean getting into the mind of a serial killer is really hard and you did it with ease making the killer really creepy. I read a book about 10 years ago by Brandilyn Collins on Getting into Character and it was about how an author can use the tricks actors do to get into character. Not sure I understood it that well at the time, but your post clears up some questions I had.Ruby Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01030839859107760855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4543098270794087276.post-18178679870663884742012-02-29T09:01:32.448-06:002012-02-29T09:01:32.448-06:00I'm just commenting to let you know what a per...I'm just commenting to let you know what a perfect discovery my cousin obtained finding your internet page. So I came and noticed a great number of pieces, which showed you writers have a marvelous heart to help other people completely have an understanding of some complicated things. In this post, you truly did far more than people expected. Thanks for providing those powerful, trustworthy, revealing and also special guidance on this topic to Jane and myself.<br />LeilaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
