I’m a pantser. I’ve never outlined anything. I wouldn’t know where to begin. But there’s nothing I enjoy more than sitting in front of the monitor and going to town. Seeing where things take me, not knowing how I’m getting there. I start a book with a vague notion of how I want it to end, and then it’s a matter of filling in the important details. Creating characters as I go. Simply put, it’s fun.
And I think that’s what writing should be. Fun! In the end, we’re entertainers, and if we’re not enjoying it, then we shouldn’t be doing it.
