It is when a writer switches between tenses. For example, they might begin writing in the present tense but then they switch to writing in the past tense.
It depends on what you're writing. If you're writing a novel then it's a common technique for writer's to change tense. For example, if you are primarily writing in present tense, you could switch to past tense when talking about something that happened previously. If you are writing something academic (such as an essay or thesis) then you should try to remain consistent with your tense and not switch. Changing your tenses too often will confuse your reader so be careful.
The tense for 'writing' can vary depending on the context in which it is used. It could be present tense (e.g., "I am writing"), past tense (e.g., "I wrote"), or future tense (e.g., "I will write"). The tense of 'writing' indicates when the action of writing is taking place.
Inappropriate changes would be called "problems with tense." Appropriate use of tense in a literary work involves maintaining the tense throughout the work. If you are writing in the present...verbs are in present tense; if writing in past tense, verbs will be in past tense, etc for future tense.
