The knowledge you shared about tenses to write a story will be beneficial for everyone here.
It may help someone who has got a good idea about a story, but isn't a good writer.
I have never written a story, but I write a few posts every week on steemit, and there are times when I feel stuck on a post. I can't figure out how to complete it. Or to leave the topic and start writing a new one.
I am sure that you face such situations too, what do you do then, when you are completely stuck in a post/story?
Do you leave it/ rewrite it from the starting, or take some time out to think about it?
I have at least half a dozen part-completed novels waiting for me to get back to them. I have stories in similar states. If the inspiration leaves, trying to force it doesn't work for me. I never throw (delete) anything, however. One day, I'll get back to the story I'm stuck on and I've rediscovered it either because inspiration made me go back to it or I believe it will strike as I read the part-finished story.
I assume it's a similar tale for most writers. Some call it 'Writer's block'.

Yeah, now I remember the terminology used for it, "The Writer's Block", thanks.
Half a dozen novels, that's pretty much interesting. You write a lot of novels?

That's great. I don't read novels much, but the next one that I will read, will be yours for sure.
You are also an editor of a magazine, looks like there is a lot to learn from you.

Thank you. Take a look on Smashwords for Dusty the Demon Hunter's first adventure, Dream Lover - it's free to download from there.
I was the chief editor, sadly that magazine is no more.

Thank you, I will bookmark it to download it later.
Sorry for the magazine, hope you are doing well even after it.
I am trying to improve my writing skills, so can you recommend me any source/book/blog that you take inspiration from?

My 'Bible' would be Stephen King's 'On Writing' - memoirs of his craft.
