But narrative is the oldest and most compelling method of holding someone’s attention; everybody wants to be told a story.
Storytellers have a superpower. They can make people feel good and whole and right. They can inspire and inform. They can make people see the world in a new way. They can make people feel better about themselves.
The third-person narrator is the voice in which we naturally tell stories about things that happened to people other than ourselves.
There are dozens of ways to break up the narrative even in the first person. But everything flows through the consciousness of this narrator, so you must be true to that voice.
