Writing in present tense
Someone was advertising a book in here yesterday, not sure where the thread went or what the books was called, but when I had a look at the feedback on Smashwords there was a few comments saying that the present tense writing style took a long time to get used to.

So are those people just being picky, or is there really a lot of people who would be put off by a present tense writing style?
