So I am at a Model Organization of American States Conference in DC at the moment and we have been having to do everything in Parliamentary Proceedure (ie. "The Delegation of Belize" or "This delegate" basically speaking in third person at all times.) It's hard to do when verbally communicating. It takes some concious thought and effort. So of course it gave me an idea for an exercise.
This blogger proposes that any readers of this blog try to write a paragraph to a page completely in second person. This blogger knows that second person is a POV (Point-of-View) very rarely used in written communication and knows that that the times the blogger has used second person it is challenging. So this blogger's challenge to all you fellow writers is to write in an unfamiliar POV for the day. Try something new. All in favor please go and write now. This blogger thanks the readers of this blog for their time.
