I'm going back and forth about my POV. When I first wrote the manuscript, I wrote it in 3rd person omniscient, period, end-of-story, like it or leave it. It had a great, fun voice that poked a bit of fun at the main character. But the more the main character evolves, the less I like the voice. Plus, everyone says that omniscient is out, and you need to write in 1st/3rd person. ( I wonder how A Series of Unfortunate Events, and A Tale of Desperaux got published if that's the case?)
So then I decided, I'll just switch everything to 3rd person with one main POV and a secondary POV for one of the sub-plots. Problem is, I just don't like it as well. All of the snarky little comments that made the story fun are gone.
I think I've made up my mind and I'm going back to omniscient. I just hope I still feel this way when I get to the end.
