T-Rex: I don't understand when all these first person narrators ever find the time to write down their stories.

Narrator: BOOK WRITING TIPS
Narrator: with T-REX

T-Rex: TIP #1: If your story with first-person narration doesn't have one or ideally SEVERAL scenes where your narrator sits down and writes out the story up to now, that's a continuity error.
T-Rex: Oh! And if they die the book should stop suddenly BEFORE they die, possibly mid word. That's tip #2.
T-Rex: This is 101-level stuff, people!

Utahraptor: I think you're thinking of epistolary novels?
T-Rex: Them too!

T-Rex: Look, all I need is for EVERY first-person novel to end with "And then I wrote this all down; turns out I'm a professional-tier writer" or, POSSIBLY, "And then I relayed what happened in an extended public monologue and some jerk is writing it down verbatim, wtf, I can see him doing it right now."

T-Rex: In both cases they should end with "The end... or IS IT??" because all good stories should leave room for a sequel.
T-Rex: Ooh!
T-Rex: That's tip #3!!
