WRITING A STORY

When you are writing a story you have to be very consistent using VERBAL TENSES. 

They are often in the PAST ( Past simple or continuouous, Present Perfect, Past Perfect, Modals in the PAST)

You may introduce direct speech: Something someone said. And that would enrich your story and change the verbal tense.

JUST BE CONSISTENT.

REVISE EVERYTHING WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED YOUR WRITING

I post an example with the mistakes in bold, can you correct it? Post corrections please!

I am just posting one but could have posted many more! WE NEED TO LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES

SETTING UP A ROUTINE We may not need an alarm clock these days, or we may still need it! Get up, have a shower and get dressed. Change your pijama into something comfortable and start your day! DOING EXERCISE We can't go out, but we can't be all day long from the sofa to our bedroom. Every hour we must stretch and walk around, look outside and follow someone on Instagram or any page with lots of exercising. BEING IN CONTACT WITH FRIENDS We all need to talk to others and specially with our Friends. We can't forget them. Set aside a time, not to watsup all the time but to make a video conference with them. You can also connect to exercise together. Whatever breaks your routine is always welcome.
