Anonymous asked:
hi! is it advisable to use present tense in my story when it takes place from 2002-2017? thanks.
There’s no reason you can’t, if that’s what you’re asking. Whether or not you do depends on the needs of the story and your preference as a writer. As long as you have smooth transitions to get you through any time jumps, it’s a fine choice.

Have a writing question? I’d love to hear from you! Prohibited asks: how to portray/describe (characters, emotions, situations), specialist knowledge requests (medical, military, mental health, etc.), asking for tropes/cliches or resources, triggering/controversial topics; broad, vague, or complex questions. Asks directed to other anons/askers. I get dozens of questions per day…please don’t ask if I got your question. See master list & main site for more info!
