The lecturer explained about ‘Narrator and Voice’ :)

Narrator → the person telling the story

There are three main points of view,

a.       Omniscient

-          Is not a character in the story

-          Knows all

-          Can tell us everything about every characters

b.      First person

-          Is a character in the story

-          Uses first-person pronouns such as ‘I’ and ‘Me’

-          Tells us only what he or she experienced

c.       Third person limited

-          Give one character’s thought and reactions

-          Uses third-person pronouns (he, she, they)

-          Tells little about every characters

Tone: the attitude a speaker or writer takes toward a subject, character or audience

Voice: the writer’s distinctive use of language and his/her overall style. Diction (choice of words) helps create voice.
