Our November Duck Prints Press contributor’s panel for our Patreon backers is coming up this Saturday, November 16, at 4 p.m. Eastern (time zone convertor).

Title: Planning vs. Pantsing

Description: In writing circles, it’s common to discuss our personal approaches to preparing to write a long story along a spectrum from “planning,” in which the author plans extensively and in detail before beginning to write, to “pantsing,” where the author does no planning and just begins to write – “flying by the seat of their pants” as it were. However, in practice, individual authors rarely fall completely into one or the other of these categories (and so many authors feel themselves in the middle that the term “plantsing” has arisen for people who do some of each). In this panel, we’ve gathered Duck Prints Press authors from across the planning to pantsing spectrum to discuss how planning and pantsing are different and how they’re similar, when we as writers plan and when we pants, strategies for successfully planning a story and successfully pantsing a story, which methods we’ve tried and how they’ve worked for us, and more!

Panelists: Rhosyn Goodfellow, Zel Howland, Vee Sloane, Tris Lawrence, J. D. Rivers, and Alex Bauer

Moderator: Nina Waters

Date: Saturday, November 16th

Time: 4 p.m. Eastern (time zone converter)
