If you're a writer who hates to outline, you'll love this week's podcast! We talk to Patricia McLinn, a mystery and romance author who is also a pantser who writes out of sequence. She's here to tell you that it doesn't matter how you write it, as long as it comes together in the end! Patricia worked at the Washington Post for more than 20 years, is a past president of NINC, and has published more than 50 novels (at least that's how many we could count on her website...) so she's an experienced writer and editor who knows what she's talking about. She talks about how she writes first and subsequent drafts, her techniques for ensuring she has the right structure, and how her characters talk to her until she writes their stories... Are you worried that you can't outline, and that you're not following the latest advice on how to write faster, better or smarter? Join us to hear Patricia's take on how to succeed as someone who writes by the seat of their pants and still keeps producing many, many books.
