All of you need to stop writing fiction in the present tense.
Oh for the love of... write whatever you want, OF COURSE! But use your tenses purposefully. Realize the limitations and act accordingly. We can tell when you haven't thought about this. Sorry, but this is true.
@HeidiPitlor You mean deliberately, not purposefully.
@HeidiPitlor Use your tenses purposefully? Why, when it's so much more fun to just choose one out of a bag and run with it? You assume there's no thought put into the choice simply because you don't like the result.
@HeidiPitlor As much thought as you put into your original tweet? Calling out the use of present tense instead of any formal choice is a bizarre way of making this point.
@HeidiPitlor What I find hilarious about this is your inability to realize YOU haven't conveyed your sentiments well after judging other people's writing. Or, more likely, you're backtracking because you got called out. Either way, top notch content.
