- Punctuation as rhythm

2. CLOSE THIRD FILTERED
- Narrator-mediated thoughts
- Seamless blend with description

3. DIRECT THOUGHT (ITALICIZED)
- Strategic use of direct thought
- When to break into first person

4. SENSORY-THOUGHT BLEND
- Perception triggering thought
- External and internal intertwined

For each style, write a 150-word passage. Then provide guidance on when each style works best and how to transition between them within a scene.
