I am going to write a bit more, then I am going to write outt some lengthy character profiles for all the major protagonists and antagonists, so that way I can ensure they are devloped, and do not do anything that the charcter would not do by mistake or forgetfulness. Godd luck to yer! :D

What perspective you guys telling your novels from, first person or third person?

If your writing in first person you NEED to read the Great Gatsby, the narrative in it is complete genius. Wolf Brother is a good example of drop in drop out narrative, which works nicely in fantasy books.

Mine is written in 3rd person anyway, although I have read Great Gatsby (had to read it for my A Level last year and year before), didn't think the story was interesting but u=it sure as hell was well written.

I love the Great Gatsby. I'm currently writing in 3rd person, but I'd like to try 1st person sometime.

I am writing in first persona as the book was written by the people that are in the story (At least of those who survived 8) )
