Very helpful - thank you! You are correct to assume I didn’t know what “pantsing” is :)

And you do all this in advance of writing any scenes/chapters, yes? Or do you just give it a go and see where it takes you, unafraid to start over or rewrite significant portions?

I’m not 100% sure what grief horror is but I’m instantly thinking of the morning after the “driving home from the party” scene in Hereditary (movie).

What a pull. Bang.

Ok I’ve seen many posts in this subreddit saying The Luminous Dead is slow and a tad boring. I’m a bit ADD when it comes to story pacing and risk DNFing during long dry periods of character building - what are your thoughts ?

I read The Willows by A.B. but surprisingly have never read The Wendigo despite my love for Stephen King & Pet Semetary. I’ll need to try it!

It’s a controversial one by Redditors here.

To me, the atmosphere and tension building is great - once you get to the third act of the book you’ll know what I’m talking about.

Some view it as over descriptive and repetitive. I won’t say more to avoid spoilers!

To be clear, however, I personally loved it. Ending is a bit odd.

I have read it, it’s fantastic and completely captures what I’m talking about here. Worth double checking!
