Reedsy recently published an inspired infographic on the differences between the third person limited point of view (PoV) and the third person omniscient one. As they say, an image is worth a thousand words, so here is the perfect way to understand the differences between the two.
Many thanks to Reedsy for letting me share this.
This visual description lays it out perfectly. I write in limited third person almost entirely because it helps me focus the narrative. It also helps the reader to get to know the main character more intimately.

Thanks for sharing this. I was very clear and easy to follow. I am a pantser and am now striving for more structure within that style so your post was very helpful…especially having the visuals.
