QUESTION:
What would you say is your interesting writing quirk?
ANSWER:
I'm what they call a 'pantser'.
A pantser is a term most commonly applied to fiction writers, especially novelists, who write their stories "by the seat of their pants." The opposite would be a plotter, or someone who uses outlines to help plot out their novels.
Basically, I'm just as surprised by what 'happens next' in my stories as everyone else! I may have a hundred ideas floating around my head, but I'm never sure which one it will be, if any until I physically end up writing the scene.
As such, I truly understand the phrase "the book wrote itself". This describes the experience perfectly!
