Q
how do tenses interest the reader?
A
Using the present tense can make a story feel more immediate and engaging, drawing the reader into the moment.
Past tense, while common, can sometimes make the story feel more distant, and the reader might feel like they are witnessing events from the past rather than experiencing them in real-time.
Future tense, while less common in narrative, can create anticipation and suspense by highlighting events that have not yet occurred.
