What is a Pantser?
Briefly put, a panster is someone who writes by the seat of his pants (or briefs, if you’re that kind of guy. Hey, no judgments here.) He–or she –is the writer who, like Spock and Bones, goes “where no man has gone before:” the uncharted territory of a novel without an outline.
“This book is intended to help those of us seat-flyers get some grounding in what we do, and to find and use a system in the chaos that is pantsing,” says the Author, Annalisa Parent.
A writer to inspire other writers, Annalisa Parent pulls back the curtain on some of the processes used in the Writing Gym to help writers to become successful authors. The Writing Gym moves writers into authorship by helping them finish, publish traditionally and sell their novels.
Storytelling for Pantsers:How to Write and Revise your Novel Without an Outline is available locally at the Crow Bookshop; Phoenix Books; Bear Pond Books, Stowe, and The Village Square bookstore in Bellows Falls. You can also order it online at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
