Edit topic

Hi guys so I was thinking about changing my constant past writing style (things like didn't, did, -ed) to a present (is, am) style.

Sooooo here's the poll, lol!

Present or Past?

Past, it always makes things seem put together. Though I am guilty of mixing them sometimes.

I tend to mix them up lol, I’m guilty too

Usually past for me though

i like writing in a past tense because it limits confusion (in my opinion). plus, it can sound kinda creepy sometimes if it's constantly "he is walking slowly to a place" versus "he walked slowly to a place". idk, it has a better ring to it, in my opinion, when things are written in the past tense.

It depends on what you’re writjng, I think. Some things are better suited to past, while others are to present. I usually do past just because it’s easier to know who’s speaking and who’s POV it’s in, though.

Past is better imo but for the love of all things holy don't do one when everyone is doing another.
_{Also mixing is pretty bad.}
