      Right now, I'm a member of online community where I developed my writing. I have a "rough draft" of my first fiction novel in a drama genre, based on a True Story. I am using the first person POV. any constructive suggestion/s or comments. By the way, I am newcomer with this kind of trade. English is my second language, and I'm confused in the usage of tenses from the beginning of the draft up to the end. I appreciate your kind contribution. Thank you.
