Next on you're comment about Kaylie not telling us the story. you see that's where you're wrong. When I write a story (and I've read other books that have done the same) they treat the character as the narrator. This is mainly when it's done it first person view. So in this case, Kaylie is the narrator in this story. She's telling us her

Wow. I think he's confused with first person point of view and third person limited point of view when he said he read other books doing the same thing.

And haha, dangerous magic mice.

I don't even know. *rolls eyes*

They come up with the craziest things, I swear.

You know, the more I see of fanfic, the less surprised I am by these sorts of things.

Honestly, though, I didn't know the differences between first and third person were that hard to understand.

This is far from the worst thing I've ever come across. Unfortunately I'm probably going to see much, much worse in the future.

Clearly it is. Even worse, this author can't even keep his own definitions of the two straight. *sigh*

...am I missing something? Because as far as I can see, only the prologue thing of her playing with the dolls is in third person. After that it's suddenly first person. Which is random and all, but the problem here is you're not talking about the same parts of the story, not that the author doesn't know the difference between first and third person

That is true, but I'd been talking about the earlier bit where he'd been changing tense in the narrative. I even specifically quoted bits from there. He then replied to that by saying he could switch at will because it was all first person. It isn't and definitely not the bit I was talking about.

At the same time he's also contradicting himself by saying that there isn't a narrator and then following that by saying there technically is.
