Nothing like being nearly 4200 words into a story before it starts clamoring at you that it wants to be in first person. It's the best thing ever.
I guess the question is, should I just write the damn thing in first person going forward and then fix the first 4000 words in edits, or should I continue in limited third and try to force it into a shape it doesn't want to be in.
Actually, I know the answer to that, and the answer is "Don't argue with the Muse because the Muse is frequently correct."
Especially since I just wrote the next sentence in first person anyway.
