Point-of-view is the lens through a character experiences the events of a story. There’s nothing wrong with inserting your own opinions into the mouths of a character you’ve created as long as you don’t let it take over. But if you’re writing a story for an already existing universe, inventing an author surrogate is the worst kind of fan fiction. So what’s a good litmus test to see if you gone too far?

As his words emerged, soft and tinged with his guttural Cajun drawl, images flooded Alex’s mind. Images of visions of rituals and flickering flames and rivers of blood. The words from the Eucharist—Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood— indelibly etched on her mind’s eye.
And gazing at Gabriel, she couldn’t shake the distinct sense he knew she felt it too.
Something just wasn’t right.
But could they find out what before anything like this happened again?
