I sat at the dinner table, watching my family gather around as we always did, the familiar hum of conversation filling the room. My dad was telling one of his old stories, the kind we’d all heard a dozen times, but it still made us laugh every time.

At dawn, Mae Tuck set out on her horse for the wood at the edge of the village of Treegap. She was going there, as she did once every ten years, to meet her two sons, Miles and Jesse, and she was feeling at ease.

Once you have your grill assembled, the next thing to decide is where to put it. A grill puts out a lot of heat, so you should position it several feet away from the side of the house or any plants or shrubbery. You'll have an easier time with a spot that is sheltered from the wind. When positioning a grill on a wooden deck, remember that sparks and live embers can fall from a charcoal grill.
Narrative Perspective: Second-person
We were driving along the road from Maine to Pennsylvania. We passed several gas stations, but for the most part, there was not much to see. I was completely bored and drifting to sleep.

2nd person
I walked down the empty street, my footsteps echoing in the silence of the night. The cool air wrapped around me, a welcome relief from the heat of the day. I didn’t know exactly where I was headed, but somehow, it didn’t matter. My mind was consumed with thoughts I couldn’t shake, memories that felt both distant and immediate. I paused for a moment, looking up at the dark sky, the stars hidden behind a veil of clouds. There was something peaceful in the stillness, something that made the weight on my chest feel a little lighter. Maybe I didn’t need to have all the answers right now. Maybe I just needed to keep walking.

On the first day of school, Victor stood in line half and hour before he came to a wobbly card table. He was handed a packet of papers and a computer card on which he listed his one elective, French. He already spoke Spanish and English, but he thought some day he might travel to France, where it was cool; not like Fresno, where summer days reached 110 degrees in the shade.

Before each practice begins, make sure you check the court and remove any debris from the playing surface. When your players arrive, check that they have the proper footwear and that they've removed any jewelry, which could injure the player wearing the jewelry or another player. Always carry a list of emergency phone numbers for your players, and know where the nearest phone is located. You should also have a first-aid kit, and you might want to take a first-aid course.

Narrative Perspective: Third-Person Objective
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversations?" So she was considering, in her own mind whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

First, wash your hands and gather all of your materials. Once you've done that, follow all of the directions in your cookbook. Put the crispy treats in the oven and cook for 30-35. While your treats cook you might want to clean your work space. When you take the treats out of the oven, pour the honey and lemon sauce on immediately. Once treats are cooled, you and your friends can enjoy.
Second-Person
The sun hung low in the sky, casting a golden glow across the quiet street. Sarah, walking briskly toward the small café on the corner, barely noticed the way the light shifted with each step. Her mind was occupied with thoughts of the meeting she had just left, her nerves still buzzing from the exchange. Across the street, an elderly man sat on a bench, watching the world pass by with a faint smile on his lips. He had seen many days like this, but today felt different, though he couldn’t say why. As Sarah neared the café, she paused for a moment, catching sight of a young couple laughing at a table by the window. The scene before her, filled with quiet lives intersecting in ways they may never understand, held a sense of peaceful inevitability that no one seemed to notice but the world itself.
Narrative Perspective: Third-Person Omniscient
You walk into the room, the familiar scent of coffee and old books filling the air. The soft hum of the city outside seeps through the window, but it’s barely noticeable against the quiet stillness inside. You glance at the desk, cluttered with papers, yet everything feels strangely in place, as though it’s waiting for you to make the next move. You take a deep breath, your fingers brushing the worn pages of a book you haven’t opened in months. The weight of time presses on your shoulders, but for now, it feels as though you have all the time in the world.
