Hello, guys,
How’s your week going?
Mine is pretty busy. Had a lot of work to do here and there.
I haven’t even posted as many poems as I wanted to this week, but I’ll try to post something later today or tomorrow.
I noticed something while I was writing a chapter of my novel.
I think most people are aware that the way screenplays/scripts are written is way different from novels.
Simple present tense—mostly used in screenplays
Simple past tense—commonly used in novel writing.
I kept using simple present tenses, and by the time I realized it, I’d written about three—maybe four—paragraphs.
Have you ever had that sort of thing happen to you?
You don’t have to be a screenwriter to write in simple present tense, but has there been a time you got lost writing that story, and by the time you realized what you’ve written, you’ve gone so far in the story?
Share your experience in the comment; I’ll be glad to read your experience.
Note that you can also use simple present tense in novel writing; you just have to maintain consistency all through the book.
I think that’s all for now, and I’ll catch you in another post.
Take care. 😊
