And I agree that doing it right--that is, doing it so that it's not confusing as hell--is really friggin' difficult. XD When used effectively, however, I feel it can really give a unique twist to a story.Akiotena:https://www.blogger.com/profile/02314860241449528522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932376865726081805.post-6661995457317763242011-06-21T13:20:31.654-04:002011-06-21T13:20:31.654-04:00You know, the whole head-hopping thing was on my m...You know, the whole head-hopping thing was on my mind the other day, too. I have yet to read a novel where third person omniscient worked well. Most of the time I read these, I find myself stopping mid-page and wondering why I'm suddenly in Judy's head when in the last sentence I was in Frank's.
