What's My Scene? with Freya Wright-Brough

This is a What's My Scene? post featuring Freya Wright-Brough.

I think I’m inwardly sadistic. Last year I travelled to a city I’d never been to, in order to lock myself in a room whilst people challenged me to various writing tasks for 24 hours straight without sleep. I finished that challenge a tired confused mess, dancing to keep myself awake...

...But I was already dreaming bigger.

What if I could do it for a whole year?

It Started as a Dare

This is a What’s My Scene post from Tiggy Johnson.

It started on Twitter. Someone said something about wanting to submit to a certain type of publication. Someone else mentioned competitions. Others said ‘I should, I should’ and ‘me too’. Then someone said the D word: Dare. And so the first goals of The Subcommittee were made. Not that we were called that then.

People of NaNoWriMo - Pantsers

Earlier today we opened our People of NaNoWriMo series with the planners. Now, strolling in at the end of the day…the Pantsers.

People of NaNoWriMo - Planners

Someone once told me that there are two types of writers. Pantsers and Planners.

According to the stereotype, planners have a meticulous understanding about where their story is going to go, they’ve thought out plot points, character arcs, the works.

Pantsers have a vague idea and react to the where the story and the characters takes them.

Today on the blog, you are going to hear from people that might loosely fit into either camp.
