It is
also a little awkward to write in first person. 3rd person is
easier,
although with the appropriet plot line, and written properly, first
person
point of view is quiet effective.
As I was mulling over how to continue with my most recent
EVA
piece, I realized that I hadn't seen very many fics written in first
person, including most self-inserts. Is that really the way most
pieces
are written, or is it just me?
Actually, I once read a self insertion fic, a Gundam/Babylon 5/Macross
Plus/Macross 7/Tenchi Muyo/Sol Bianca/Whatever The Hell I Can Pack
Into
This Thing crossover. Interesting story too.
And what I *also* meant to say was that it was in first person
perspective.
Loooooooong day.
