mamadebI'm starting the sequel to "Beautiful Boy."
And I think it wants to be present tense, but only in part. How bad would it be if all and only the sex scenes were in present tense? I can even think of some dramatic uses of this - the scene is interrupted and we're back in past tense. OTOH, that can also be very *bad*.
So. Whole thing one tense - probably past? Or get fancy? Or try and see?
