o For hyphenation of compound modifiers (e.g., well-written sentence), if you can replace your modifying words with “moss-covered” then be sure to hyphenate. The exception being when the first modifier ends in “ly”, like “sharply honed knife.” o When deciding on present or past tense, imagine that the time line of your story is a rope stretching from the beginning to the end. When you are writing any part of the story, first ask yourself where you are in your story, then where this particular part of the story would be located on your time line. If it occurred before your current location on the time line/rope, use past tense.
