TIL my style of writing is called Free Indirect Discourse. I’ve always written this way and had no idea there was a term for it.
“In this point of view, a third-person narrator stops describing the worldview of a given character—telling us what he or she thinks—and instead presents that worldview as if it were the narrator’s. As I like to think of it, free indirect discourse describes moments in a third-person narrative when the narrator becomes infected by the perspective of one of its characters.”
