Here are my series. Both pantsed and organically written.

The Museum | Tapas

The Gifted Ones | Tapas

[kmlangleyauthor]

This whole story has been me flying by the seat of my pants I knocked out the first 50k words in 9 days (I barely functioned as a human because I was just nonstop writing during that time ) and the only reason I have any type of an outline was essentially to make sure I wasn’t writing myself into a corner and have almost entirely disregarded since

Do You Believe In Magic | Tapas

This was my story for the Writing Jam. I finally came up with the idea 2 weeks into the 4 weeks I didn’t decide on who was surviving until I legit wrote the scene I had no idea where it was going and just... wrote

Fatal Focus | Tapas

[therosesword]

I didn’t decide on who was surviving until I legit wrote the scene I had no idea where it was going and just... wrote

That's how we roll and why a friend of mine and I call it "Free fall" writing.

[CttMaurice]

I AM HERE!

Yep, while pantsing as a writing style sounds odd. Think about it "pantsing"... I definitely am one, the story goes in whatever direction with as little guidance from me as possible. Instead of my writing feeling like a dronelike reach to an end, it plays like watching an anime in my head. Which I absolutely love.

Heress and Choko | Tapas

Welcome to the Organic/Pants Revolution!!! It does sound funny as a writing style but it's also freeing to write what comes naturally instead of trying to fit a mold.

[BrambleberrySquirrel]

I have a general story arc planned for my series but all my dialog is improvised as I make each episode. I don’t have a planned episode order I just make what feels right next once I complete an update.

Cup & Quill | Tapas

[Luminescent]

I never knew there was a term for what I do lol! Exciting to see lots of others do it too!

Beginnings and Ends | Tapas

[therosesword]

I've always called it "organic" writing, then there's the "by the seat of your pants" writing term and then one a friend and I use... "free falling."

Welcome aboard.

[hjpetersonauthor]

Definitely consider myself a pantser... outlining kills my writing, I think.

Godswater | Tapas

[therosesword]

Same here. By the way, read the description of my Bright Morn... love it when great minds work in tandem!

Write hard, write true

[Moctemma]

Not only I'm a pantser, I'm also a character-driven author. I get to know my characters as I'm writing and that decides the plot. Here are my works.
https://tapas.io/series/Traitors-of-Humanity-Project-Domination
A sci-fi vs fantasy action story;
https://tapas.io/series/Uzziye-became-a-florist
And a story about struggling for a peaceful life in a fantasy world.

[uglygirlnextdoor]

The story is completed inside my head. Just little twists, plots, or spontaneous scenes are written on my sketchbook or .txt file.

The transcriptions are more me trying to describe my eavesdrops on strange conversations inside my head. Hope you enjoy my work

The Circle of Light and Darkness | Tapas

updated each Sunday at 00.01 PST

[therosesword]

Yup, you're gonna fit in just fine here. I too get to know my characters through writing. Welcome aboard.

[therosesword]

Gotta love a good eavesdropper! Welcome.

[uglygirlnextdoor]

lcome.

Thank you, I am actually new to tapas, and sorta still waiting to find people involved with the story as I am

So I can't put any of my comics here because I am 100% a INTJ planner for comics, but for the writing of a book...I research at the same time as writing. The inspiration hits, I hit the keyboard, or else I just can't sleep at night because I daydream about my stories too much. So...pants'ed...but...not entirely sure the percentage of the pantsing vs the research that went into it? But, I followed the advice from some author I heard at a con who said to just put your ass in the chair and do 1200 words a day. And that's what I did, it was done through just making a word count goal and writing 1200 words a day, without turning back and rewriting anything. Finished a draft of book in a half a year, and time-wise that wasn't a huge time commitment to do, either.

But when I started writing it, this one wasn't so plot driven, I was just really bothered by the ending of some of the YA series that I grew up with, and I wanted to really explore the problem of when Self Sacrifice is also Self Destruction. Why someone has to give so much of themselves in order to feel valid and important. So it's been a really flexible and changing story throughout it's lifespan of me writing it and rewriting it over the years before posting it here.

Alchemist Burn Outs The Novel | Tapas

[therosesword]

Part of the reason I'm asking for pants stuff here is because I've seen comments about how people can always tell when something is pants because it lacks ... in whatever way they seem to think it lacks.

I, of course, disagree. So I thought it would be nice to have a spot where a person who wants to see if this is true or not can come and find a whole bunch of stories to go through and make up their own mind.

Here you are. Three years to date of "Let's see where this goes" and "What is an outline?" XD

Lacuna: A Nexus Troupe Novel | Tapas

[TheGentleArtist]

I dunno if this counts. The beginning was chosen at random and I went with it. Then I did the same for the other episodes, I just think of a scenario and draw it; so it's kinda going to be chronologically out of order until something big happens that connects the timeline.

Tokyo Star Memories | Tapas
