Rewriting a Story From a Different Perspective

1. Identify the Point of View The man gets to his feet and walks slowly to the door. Silence. The boy sits up. “No,” the man whispers, and in that instant the blade of a sword, long and gleaming, made of a shining white metal that is not found on Earth, comes through the door and sinks deeply into the man’s chest.

2. Think About the Effect of Using That Point of View What do we learn? What do we not learn? The man gets to his feet and walks slowly to the door. Silence. The boy sits up. “No,” the man whispers, and in that instant the blade of a sword, long and gleaming, made of a shining white metal that is not found on Earth, comes through the door and sinks deeply into the man’s chest.

3. Think About How Another Point of View Would Alter The Effect First Person Third Person – Limited, Omniscient The man gets to his feet and walks slowly to the door. Silence. The boy sits up. “No,” the man whispers, and in that instant the blade of a sword, long and gleaming, made of a shining white metal that is not found on Earth, comes through the door and sinks deeply into the man’s chest.

4. Decide on a NEW Point of View & Begin Rewriting Stay true to the story – not only the section you are rewriting, but the whole story. Use your imagination to add reasonable details, dialogue, etc… when necessary to your rewrite. Try to maintain the same style as the author – tone, word choice, etc…
