shivverPOV practice today!
Select a few paragraphs from an already-written snippet - yours or someone else's, doesn't matter - and rewrite it from a different point of view. You can change the actual POV, such as switching from third-person to first-person (or even second-person), or you can change the POV character - choose a different character to tell it from, or use a neutral narrator. The characters, events, and dialogue should stay the same, but anything else (and maybe everything else!) may be different.
The idea is to observe what happens when you switch POV. Does scene feel more personal and intimate, or does it become impersonal and distant? Do different details and information come out, and others get hidden, because a different person is relaying the events? What else changes?
