Now I remember another reason why I don't like first person for writing: The narrator always wants to say things their way, and if I don't let them, they sulk. This would be fine if they didn't get so carried away.
I end up with lines like:
As he approached his apartment up on Level 4, Chev heard voices. With the instincts of any animal that has been hunted all its life, he froze.
Oh dear. It's going to be a long rewrite :|
