every time i write i think about that maya angelou quote where she talks about her editor asking her why she uses semicolons instead of colons and says she has often responded by threatening to never speak to him again

Me: You HAVE to draw gay commedia dell’arte characters. Also me, somehow: I do? Me: You are OBSESSED with commedia dell’arte characters. Also me: I am???
You should only write in present tense with extreme caution.
not because it’s bad or anything but because if you do it even once you’re going to be editing the bits where you shifted tenses out of your writing for the rest of your life
if u write in present tense enough times in a row, you can switch this problem around & get confused when your present-tense narrator is talking abt something that happened in Their past. I recommend this bc it keeps u on ur toes
