Using different times for different narrative purposes
I'm writing a biography. And I want it to be written in English, although I'm not a native speaker. Can I use different times to highlight different narratives, like this:

Present - for describing events from point of view of the participants.
Past - for analysis from the author's point of view.
Future - for spoilers.

Is it a good idea for narrative in general? Also, is it ok for native English speakers?

Check this great summary on how to use the different tenses in english

I can also advise you to use Grammarly to check your overall document, style, grammar and spelling. The free version is interesting, and if you need more there is a paid version.

I hope this will help !
