Draft, Edit, Submit #03: A Deluge of Drafts

in writer •  5 years ago 

As long as it doesn't stop you! With stories, when I used that approach, I got stuck rewriting the first parts; I had to learn to let go and just draft the whole thing and rewrite/edit later, before I forget where I'm going.

I often feel like I get stuck/linger on beginnings. Eventually, though, I let go and move on. Then I get stuck on the next part. I guess it doesn’t stop me. But it certainly makes progress slow.

We all have different internal editors and we find what's best for us. If you didn't edit during draft, you'd have to rewrite/edit a lot more later anyway probably.

That’s probably true.
