Choose the correct tense

-I JUST MAKE myself a cup of coffee when my sister came home, so I offered her a cup, too.

-Usually I write about once a month but this is the second letter I WRITE this month because he is coming here soon and we have to make the arrangements for his visit.

You need the past form of the word instead of the present because you have already finished making the cup of coffee. " You could also use the present perfect, "have written," indicating that there is a possibility that you will write him again.

WRITE is in the present tense, but the action is already completed, so you need the past tense, "wrote." You could also use the present perfect, "have written," indicating that there is a possibility that you will write him again.
