hey i've got this new idea about this guy with amnesia and he dosn't no who he is, but i'm not sure if i should write in 1st person or 3rd person. Give your views here. Or pm.
I think we'd need a little more detail to give you any advice. Such as genre and a little about his personality.
How bad is his amnesia, is he going to remember things in bits and pieces? How confused is he?
You have to remember that first person is 'I', so the writing will have to reflect his mind. Because he has amnesia, it might be very cool to see how he thinks as he struggles through things.
On the other hand, there might be an advantage to watching him from a distance. I can't explain that at the moment, it really would depend on the character. =P
Dunno if that help any at the moment.
^_^ Keek!
I'm like that song stuck in your head; I come and I go, but never truly dissapear.
I tell you what could work, he meets someone who says they are related to him, but he doesn't believe it. Both people could do pieces in first person/.
If you did both, then they would need to center around different characters. ex: the third person would center around the man who if following you MC in an attempt to defeat him. and the First person around the MC. In a way, the first person would become a sort of 'journal'. =P
