The Price of Friendship by Graeme

[C James]

Danishes? :wacko: :wacko: You're kidding right?

 

Wait, I forgot whom I'm discussing this with. The one who is still upset over Lemonade .

 

Well, though I don't use cliffhangers myself, I know 'em when i see 'em!

 

I'm wondering what Brandon will do. He likes Drew, but Drew's penchant for outing people is a bit of a problem. LoL.

 

That brings up the possible sequel... how will Graeme write it? TPOF was 1st person from Rick's POV, but, for a story that centered on Brandon, would that work?

 

So, I see several possibilities;

1st person from Rick's POV

1st person from Brandon (or perhaps Drew's) POV

2nd person (unlikly... not really suited for this genre IMHO)

3rd person

4th person.

 

I did challenge Graeme to write this in 4th person, but I doubt he will do so.

I'm leaning towards 3rd person. The Price of Friendship really was a story about how a straight guy could be 'gay', and so 1st person from that guy's point of view made a lot of sense. The readers were able to see what Rick was thinking, and why he did certain things. The sequel, however, will have multiple story arcs, though I'll admit it will be focusing mainly on Brandon. Because I believe it should also cover things, such as what happens to Rick and Drew, it would probably be better to go with third person, so I don't need to have one character being aware of everything.
