When I was a pantser writer I always started at the beginning until I reached the end. Always kinda seemed to work for me, but, then, I only ever wrote short stories and poems because I don't write long fiction as it requires too much planning.
I'm 90% pantser. I tend to just do an outline of bullet points I want to hit overall. With my most recent book, I ended up doing 1-2 sentences for each chapter once I was about halfway through, just to check my continuity. I'm glad you found something that works for you!
Hi! You're really cool and this was super helpful, I've realized I'm a mix of a pantser and outliner and it unexpectedly helped me clear some things up :) thank you! I hope you get a lot more followers, and I'm sorry if this or any advice is unwelcome, completely disregard it if it is but it would probably help a lot to change a couple small aesthetic details. For ex. in this video the window makes it overexposed and is a tad distracting, a solid background instead would be better, the paint color behind you is really nice, it would look lovely . When it comes to lighting natural light looks great so facing the window instead of having it behind you. If you want to take it further, some contrasting and/or bright colors in your background. If you needed/care about any of this I hope it was helpful. Looking forward to watching more of your videos and good luck with your book! :)
@@Sophia-jo8tv Hi! I am so glad the video was helpful to you! I appreciate the support and helpful advice! I definitely do care :) Some of the things you mentioned are things I’ve been able to do a slightly better job with in other videos of mine, but this particular one was actually filmed at my parents house (not my normal location) so I was pretty limited with set up options! Thanks for your kindness and helpful advice! Happy to have you around! 💖
Yeah I totally disregard first drafts. Cos I usually write a chunk of the first draft (or the whole ass book), then scrap it and start on draft two. Cos I’m refining it and learning the characters. So. And yeah. The second draft is going to be the final draft after editing and revisions. For me.
Oh, no... Oh, noooo... Oh, NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, watching this video I just realized I'm a pantser. All my best stuff where out of the Ether. Everything planned I NEVER get to. Damn... Mind blown. Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness! Seriously. Thanks for sharing this. I helped me to see what was in front of me.
@@andesears I KNOW! It's actually what makes writing so fun for me. The amount of times where I thought "This guy is cool, MC maybe?" and three chapters later he was gone... lol So fun.

@@TheDarqProject13 That seems like a great middle ground between the two! It’s cool how something slightly unique works for each person!
Thank you. I am currently on my second draft, and you are helping me stay inspired. I was a little overwhelmed with the editing process.
@@ostatecrew7458 I completely relate! Well thanks for watching along, I’m so glad you can relate!
This is so interesting and I love your process!
I was today years old learning there's a TERM for my writing process thank you for this from a fellow pantser

ahh! so cool to hear from you :) thank you for watching! I hope revision is going well for your project ✨🫶🏼
I like writing theory ☺️
This process looks really interesting. I'm somewhat in the middle (I do plot and I do a lot of pantsing) so this looks right up my alley. Great video!
