Intewresting. But i find easier to write plot driven stories than character driven stories, for this now i'm praticin at writing character driven stories (and usually i like character driven stories)

Well, everyone has a different method. I prefer characters because they can drive the plot on their own. You have to know the basics of both before you can write a full story, but you'll be able to better construct your plot if you have an accurate understanding of your characters.

Okay, now I really want to read that story you kept using as an example.
Tell me it's been written down somewhere.
Oh yeah, and this was pretty helpful. In the "I probably already knew this, but it's easier to use seeing it written down" sort of way. Thanks.

xD I haven't written it down anywhere. Maybe some time in the future. I don't know. I'm able to invent random ideas off the top of my head, this one didn't appeal to me as much, since I'm more into fantasy/psychological stuff. Some time in the future I might sit down and develop it, but I currently have about 5 that I'm working on separately that are in different stages of development and that I like better.
Of course.

"Since he is a god and shouldn't sit on his ass the whole time."
I got a kick out of that line, I just had to say. xD
I found this pretty helpful, though. And just on time, too! As I've recently come up with a story that I've been having a bit of trouble with. I just needed some ideas on how to get myself moving with it again so thanks~ :]

I was wondering. I know what 1st and 3rd person is, but what is 2nd person?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Mz. poptarts sed da rite thang. =B
Yeah, it's basically used in those 'do it yourself' books, where it tells you what happens to you and then dictates a page for you to go to. And I'm sure she knows exactly what Erotica is from experience. AHAHAHA just kidding.

Pfft, like I'd ever pick up a self help book.
I WAS WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY I SWEAR. It was really poorly written from the sound of it.

Well, maybe one day you will.
xDDD YA SURE. xDDDDD No, I know. It was just funny the way you wrote it. xDD

Oh, oh, I know this one!
Second person is "You are, you do, you go", in instead of "They are, they do, they go" for Third person or "I am, I do, I go" for first. There's only two places I've ever seen Second person used are in self insert fanfics (which 99.99999% of the time are crap) or Erotica.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Erotica?
(thank you by the way. It was MUCH help. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a genre. Think porn, but in softcover book form. (I learned this from an HBO Documentary, I swear.)
You're welcome.

ok... well... thats something I didn't need to know... XDD

First person, I've found, actually isn't that much more interesting. I personally in my writings go more for a third person omniscient because it lets me show more than one character's thoughts, and I don't end up with anything too centered around a singular character. In the past, I've written up first, second, and third person stories, and third was definitely easiest for me. Where I could write a 50,000 word story in third person, first person brought me to a screeching halt only freshly into the story. Second person... we won't even get into that one. Got tips on 1st and 2nd?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I write first person when doing a comic, third person when writing something else. First person can be a lot more fun for me, I've found, but I think it really just depends on the person.
OMFG, I hate 2nd person, but if somebody wants to write it, good luck. I basically mentioned it to be fair.
Well, for first person, it's all about the character and being able to communicate their change. Third person tends to be kind of distanced from the story, while first person is deeply connected to the story. You have to be able to tell the story from the point of view of the person you're writing. If you can't do that, you can't enjoy writing it.
I mean, I'm not entirely sure what to give tips on. <<;

Ahaha, well, I can write from the point of view of the person who's narrating, I don't have that much trouble with that, but it just doesn't go too terribly well with my style of writing and tends to get boring rather quickly. But like I said, third person omniscient. I can still use all my greatly loved third person things, but I can also get into what characters are thinking.
Agreed on the second person thing though. It does suck.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't doubt you. >3 It's really dependent on how you write. When I wrote more plot driven intense stories, I wrote third person. It's easier a lot of the time. I write first person in my comics, but I also cut out and will do third person bits. It depends on what you want to do with your story, I guess. First person is better for mysteries, I think, but third person is fantastic for adventure stories and dramas.
Yeah . . . I haven't ever read an interesting second-person story. They blow.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm all for drama ;D
I've never read very long second-person stories that were any good, that's for sure. I've seen some decent passages here or there, though, written like that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
>3 Ooooooh . . . drama!
Yeah . . . occasionally I've come across good bits . . . but I can't stand second-person, really. It's just . . . annoying. xD Especially when it tells you you're doing things that you'd NEVER do. xDD
