Why did I post here? The LJ owner put out a fic rec and I responded to her regarding that fic rec. She commented back to me. I assumed it was ok to respond to her in her own journal about my comments to her regarding a recced fic. I didn't think it would be rude to discuss this issue of tense use and the mechanics of writing with her since she had opened discussion with me by responding to my comment about the subject.
I figured since she responded to my thoughts about tense use and why it didn't work well in a story for me here in her own LJ it was ok to discuss the concepts of the use of tenses and pronouns in writing fanfic which was why I used examples that were not part of the story recced but were made up to illustrate a point within the discussion.
