It's FACPOV 2: The Empire Strikes Back -- or, wait a minute, nope, we gave this episode a different funny name. In today's episode, Fern and Julia return their discussion of point of view as Fern teaches the class about 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person POV, the difference between an involved and an uninvolved narrator, and the way POV shapes a narrative. Why might an author choose to write in the 3rd person subjective POV instead of the 1st person? What can we learn from uninvolved narrators like Nick Carraway? Is The Bad Batch truly about the Bad Batch?  And why do so many canon Star Wars novels include a rotating cast of 3rd person subjective POV characters?
