This is a sample of something I wrote: > Erin watched Ruth as she disappeared between the cars and the multitude of people crossing the street. She stood there for a moment, staring at the city scene in front of her. A strange feeling of loneliness and alienation invaded her. _Not long ago, there was someone here, and now that person isn't here anymore._ It was a simple and obvious fact. And even though Erin had experienced it a thousand of times before, she felt as if it were the first. She shook her head. _I drank too much. The alcohol is doing funny stuff to my brain._ She turned around, let out a sigh, then went down the escalator. I was wondering if it is a bad practice to combine third-person narration with first-person narration without using _he/she thought, she/he wondered, etc_ (and just using italics instead)? (Of course, I will do this in moderation).
