What is the suitable tense?
Hi everybody,
what tense should i use while summarizing a story, the present tense or the past tense?
For example: a sentense from the origin story like that " mary is beautiful" if i want to write a summary i would write it like that " mary was beautiful"
another example: while describing characters in a story, should i write in the present tense or the past tense?
Thanks in advance.
