RE: Writing workshop volume 11: Second person point of view in fiction
Man, a second person novel feels like it would be a chore to read. As a short story it works, since it's unique enough that it's not a burden for a couple thousand words.
Great writeup and summary on this POV!
Thanks @negativer! I know, can you imagine reading an entire novel in second person? That would be tough! That's a very good additional point. Not only would it be difficult to sustain effectively, but who wants to read a longer work where "you" are being told what you see and experience.
