You should help me figure out what to do with the narration. A good portion may come from the point of view of 8-year-old Sherry, but I can't decide how close to her the narration should be.

Silent Harry Mason Feriku You should help me figure out what to do with the narration. A good portion may come from the point of view of 8-year-old Sherry, but I can't decide how close to her the narration should be. Hmmm, what do you have in mind? Well see, the problem is that I tend to write the narration close to the characters, letting their voice come through. But if I do that with Sherry, at that young of an age, it will...alter the narration. I suppose it's the difference between lines like "William opened the door and Claudia stalked in" and "Daddy opened the door and that scary cult lady came in." rofl

I was saying that I was liking your Sherri perspective idea, but, actually, just saying that they walked in is more interesting and descriptive to read, as opposed to seeing things from a little kid's perspective.

The problem is trying to decide which of the two ways of writing there would be better, when both have their good points.

It's going to be third person either way... xd But there is still distance involved in third person; the narrator can still present things as the character does, or be more...distant. xd

XD I guess that works . . . Present things while the Narrator does as well? I really am not entirely sure on what you think is good so, I guess that truly is up to you. NOTE: I'm Harry, on my mule.

And here I thought another person had taken an interest in my thread... cry xd I'll figure something out. Some of the others will have point of view sections, too, so maybe that'll make it work. biggrin

This story is getting more convoluted by the day. xd I was bored with my current ideas for it, so I decided to split up the cast and send most of them to the lab under Raccoon City, while Vincent and Sherry end up visiting Silent Hill. I have not yet figured out what's going to happen to them in Silent Hill, except that going there in the middle of a blizzard was not a good idea.
