The book provides concrete examples and exercises that will hone your writing skills.

Whether you're a novice writer working on her first story or an established author, this book will help you to:

● Discover what point of view is and why it's so important.

● Understand the different types of point of view such as first-person, third-person, omniscient, and deep POV.

● Choose the point of view that works best for your story.
