Decisions to make before you write chapter 1

We’re almost ready to actually sit down and write Act 1 of our book … just a few little housekeeping things we need to do before we jump into the first chapter. Namely, you need to decide on what TENSE you want to use, and what kind of NARRATION you’ll use. These are not decisions to be made lightly, so take your time and think these things through BEFORE you start!
