A Goodreads user asked Gena Showalter:

What kind of planning do you in advance of writing a book? For instance do things like developing characters, world-building , creating cultures & societal rules come easily to you as a writer?

Gena Showalter I've written most books from the seat of my pants, doing very little advanced planning, just starting with the grain of an idea. :)
