Talking about changing POV, when I was about 12 years old I wrote a story from a first person perspective about myself and a few kids marooned on an island. In the end we all died, and the final scene was a description from a third person POV of the waves rolling up a desolate beach.

The teacher told me then that I couldn't do that, which has always stuck with me. I'd like to take some of the modern authors who do just that to her now and ask her to explain to them that they're all wrong too...
