Either which way, it's whatever you feel comfortable with. I personally prefer writing third person, but sometimes prefer reading first person.

Hell, I don't care how you choose to write it-

a) it's your story, do what your heart/story tells you and
b) it's going to be grrrr (actually didn't mean to do that but fought (jesus with the typos!) I'd leave it there anyways.) grrreat.

That's why I like this in first person. *sigh* Conflicts,conflicts,conflicts.

Not if done correctly- dual narrative can come across as quite a cool concept- for example, if your presenting say, a stalker or something, watching the other characters.

Third person in general tends to isolate the reader from the character- where as it's easier to empathise with a character when it's in first person.

I'll see. I just hope I can get my sis to read it and see which she likes better. (MAJOR reader) And I'll get the opinion of my readers. ;)
As for parts in first or third...wouldn't that get confusing?

...... (Go on, Babbs, shoot yourself in the foot....)......

Why don't you do some parts in third person, and some in first person? It can do wonders from a narrative point of view- you can then have to completely seperate situations unfold for the readr, and keep the characters oblivious to some of them- which sets up the reader for either some great "in" jokes or can be a powerful tool in building suspense.

My dear, I don't think we'd say it if we didn't mean it.

No prob. :D
As for the link...thank you! :iconglompage:
And I'm really not as great as you all make me out to be. However, I am going to re-write Vasha in 3rd person and see which way is better. I know I can get more description and information in if it's in 3rd person, so we'll see how I like it before I post it. :D

It ebbs and flows.
Don't care if it pleases others,
And recall that it doesn't always rhyme.
