概要	In spite of its prevalence, stylistic features of present-tense fiction have not yet been fully explored. With a corpus-based approach, we compare 21st-century present-tense fiction with 20th-century past-tense fiction, particularly focusing on characters’ speech and thought presentation. This paper reports on some key findings from this project, highlighting cases of thought presentation categories (see Semino and Short 2004) in present-tense narrative. Out of speech, writing and thought presentation, thought presentation seems to be most affected by narrative tenses.
