How To Pants A Novel - Writer's Reach, #4

F you've spent much time in the writing community, you've probably run across this question: "Are you a plotter or a pantser?" Plotters plan and organize their books ahead of time, while pantsers "write by the seat of their pants"-or, in other words, wing it. But how? How does that work? How is it possible to just sit down and write a book?The short answer is: it's not. There is a lot more that goes on in a writer's brain than just sitting down and writing a book.
Even if that's what it looks like from the outside. How To Pants A Novel is an explication of my experience as a lifelong pantser. It explores what the process of pantsing a book might look like, delves into the intricacies of crafting a story on the fly, and answers a few common questions often posed to pantsers. Pantsing is a less frequently discussed method of writing a book, but for many writers, it's the only way that works.
And if you're one of those writers-or if you're not sure what kind of writer you are-hopefully this book will help you better understand and refine your own process into something that works the best for you.
