Thank you :)
I really enjoyed this episode. Discovery writing all the way.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This episode really resonated with me! I'm glad I came to terms with discovery writing as my process after my second book. It's made all my other books so much easier to write now that I'm okay with it being my process. Also, loved her insight on her podcast establishing herself and her voice as her brand. I want to learn how she's doing this too!
Glad it resonated :)
I have aphantasia and i'm a writer. It's hard to describe my thinking process but no visuals, sound, etc. I tend to skip description in rough drafts and then add it later. It's not that I can't it's just doing so in the rough draft would slow me down and make me lose the flow, so I do [describe] and leave it to editing me. I make notes of what characters look like or i'd never remember. Personalities I got just fine, but not looks. I am a pantser but I am reverse outlining as I go which is helping. I say pantser but the story i'm writing started off pantsing, then I got to chapter 3 and so many things came to me and I wrote them all down. It was out of order initially so I ordered them into an outline, filled in the blanks and now I have an outline and am 42k in and on chapter 21. I think i'm about in the middle... my longest story before this was 23k. Anyway I also use images and videos on google, pinterest etc. to help me out with descriptions.
It sounds like you've found a great process that works for you :)
Wait? you can post original work on Ao3?
Did I know that? Have I forgotten that?
I started in FFN and again like you two, have worked out after years of breaking my stories on the rack of story structure, that I really do write better using the discovery style AND knowing that someone is waiting to read the next chapter.
I had just decided to do that on Ream when it imploded this month July 2024, and I changed my mind... but a03 could work...
