I did not read this book but the synopsis says it all. You want to avoid talking in the past tense when writing a novel. Also avoid switching between them in the same sentence

can you elaborate on it? what does it mean by 'i should avoid talking in the past tense when i write novel?' i am an ******* and want to keep learning. but, the contradictory of 'it's better to write a novel in a past tense' (advice from the forum and my professor) and your comment makes me confused. i know the switching between tenses and that's my mistake to let it through. thanks a lot XD (furthermore, if you answer. since most of the critiques never reply.)

I just read the first chapter. In my review I talked about not using past tense, but you dod not use it the way I thought you did. You used the tenses correctly. I thought you were doing the entire book in past tense where there is not much dialogue, but it’s not like that. You did a great job with it. There were a couple grammer issues. This novel is a lot better than most of the stuff on here that gets popular. Overall except for a couple mistakes, it is a great novel. A few things I remember from it are that when using “” you want to have your .!? Outside of the quote so instead of “Where’s the cheese?” Do “Where’s the cheese”? If the sentence ends with the quote. Also do not capitalize “she” .
