Seminar: The Art of Third Person
Instructor: Samar Fitzgerald
Cost: $55 Members | $60 Non-Members
Saturday, October 16th | 9:00am-1:00pm
Ever feel indecisive about what point of view is best for the story
you want to tell? This seminar will explore the artistic advantages of
third person storytelling. We’ll break down the mechanics of the third
person point of view, question established myths about the third
person, and take a close look at famous examples of third-person
narratives. We’ll also use short writing prompts to become more
comfortable with the point of view.
