A Note On Writing By Ramse

I felt like taking a little break from reviews so here is a general note on writing:

Everyone has heard of first and third person but second person (well, you've probably heard of that too, or at least assumed its existence)?

Since third grade I thought second person was from an omnipotent point of view, then I looked it up and discovered otherwise. Second person puts the reader into the story (such as: "you arrived late at the meeting only to find your peers had eaten all the doughnuts.") resulting in a rather campy piece of writing. It's pretty obvious why second person never caught on.
