I swear we've talked about this topic before, but I hunted all over and couldn't find an actual poll, so I'm starting one.
When reading a fanfic, what point of view do you prefer the story to be in? First person (one character narrates the story... a.k.a. "I'm Howie, and here's my story..."), or third person (no narrator... a.k.a. "Howie was a short man with a high singing voice and a winking habit. One day, this happened to him...")?
I made the poll simple: choose between one of those. But in your answer, feel free to expand. Do you prefer to read in one POV, but write in another? If you like first person, do you prefer to write from a guy's POV or a girl's? If you like third person, do you prefer it to be limited (you only get the perspective of one character), or omniscient (you get the perspectives of many characters)?
