About This Quote

When something is written in the third person, the writer assumes the role of someone else. This allows the reader to get an idea about what someone else is feeling or experiencing. This can be helpful when writing about other people, because it helps to be more objective. The other person is not personally involved in the situation, so he or she can focus more clearly on what's happening.

Because you don't have to worry about how your words will affect your audience, you can be more honest and less guarded. You can write with more emotion and honesty than you would if you were writing directly to them.
