The contagious disease of present tense

[lizardbeth]

Bah, after writing that longish thing in present tense, I keep screwing up the tenses in a past-tense fic. I'll get about four paragraphs and realize I'm doing it all in present. Again. *head desk*

yeah, EXACTLY. Somehow I can write a zillion pages of past tense interspersed with present-tense flashbacks without a problem, but having made that mental switchover, it's hard to switch back. Weird. And annoying.
