To start, everyone knows how to write 3rd POV but what kind is it? For those that don't know, there are three types:
•Limited-The Narrator knows the protagonist's thoughts.
•Objective- The Narrator does not know the protagonist's thoughts and only focus on what he/she expresses externally.
•Omniscient- The Narrator literally knows Everyone's thoughts.
That should do it, now I'd like to see your own opinion on which is better or what is best for you. If you ask me, I'd go with the Limited type. Because if I go with objective, it would seem to defeat the purpose of why readers bother to read fiction, and if I go with Omniscient, it would ruin the atmosphere and the premise of the story due to no mystery or curiosity involved.
