It is when you are writing in a such of way that no one relies on what you're going to write. It is when you are using confusing sentences -- think of the way Frank Herbert wrote his famous novel double-trilogy, Dune -- Frank Herbert used confusing things moving onto things such as character's thoughts, character's own paragraphs, and more onto that.
John read Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune, and her thought it was a Fifth Person Point of View (FPPV).
