    Multiple first person, has it been done?

    Mental sickness and breakdown

    You might want to check out Bret Easton Ellis’ American Psycho. Ellis uses a 1st person stream-of-consciousness style that becomes quite believable in that (just like the main character) it becomes hard for the the reader to decipher what’s real. Ellis spends a lot of time in the beginning...

    Recommend Me Some Movies! :D

    OMG I start writing and then it's blah

    Admittedly, I'm new to this sort of thing and I've only just recently (like within the last week) been inspired to sit down and try create a fantasy world and story. While it's certainly helpful to have a flushed out world ahead of time, it's definitely not required. If you have some basic...
