   The Four Types of Point of View Here are the four primary POV types in fiction: First person point of view.  First person is when “I” am telling the story. The character is  in  the story, relating his or her experiences directly. Second person point of view.  The story is told to “you.” This POV is not common in fiction, but it’s still good to know (it  is  common in nonfiction). Third person point of view, limited.  The story is about “he” or “she.” This is the most common point of view in commercial fiction. The narrator is outside of the story and relating the experiences of a character. Third person point of view, omniscient.  The story is still about “he” or “she,” but the narrator has full access to the thoughts and experiences of  all  characters in the story.

  On Monday we had a presentation about people who are on the margins of society and struggling to get by. We were told that they faced two major problems. 1. Meeting basic needs; shelter, food, clothing. 2. Having a Broken Heart. As our speaker said, everybody has 'heart' damage, but hopefully we have enough safety nets to keep us safe when heartbreak happens. Major heartbreak has been caused by residential schools, which has contributed to the homeless problem in Winnipeg, which the speaker went into in some detail.  Question to answer about your protagonist. What challenges, if any, does your protagonist face in meeting 1. Basic Needs  2. Having a Broken Heart
