Is it strange/impractical to write a novel in present tense?

I find it much আরো comfortable to write in present than in past, and I feel like it fits better with my style of লেখা as well as the plot, but I've heard that it appeals less to readers and makes it harder to get published. Any thoughts?

It's not strange. A lot of সাম্প্রতিক বই have used present tense. As a reader, though, I'm not a অনুরাগী of it. I think it takes a lot আরো work from the writer to make it sound natural, and that it's very hit অথবা miss.

I've never read a book using present tense but I think if the stories good it wouldn't matter what tense are used.

Not in my opinion. It jsut depend what আপনি are writing. Sometimes horror stories are better in present tense.

I've read multitple বই in present tense, and it doesn't bother me at all. However, if আপনি start using fragments every other sentence, like in one বই series I won't mention the name of, then some readers may get annoyed অথবা unintrested.

No. Before I Fall, Something Borrowed, and The Hunger Games trilogy are all present tense. And look where they are now. Two of them, at least.
