This Writing Thing

I’m finding it difficult to turn off the editor in me. I constantly feel the need to go over a sentence just to make sure it’s grammatically correct. I will spend too much time making sure a sentence sounds right.

I’m going to have to make a some sort of outline after all. And I’m going to have to open a blank document whenever I start to write that way I won’t be tempted to go back and edit what I’ve written. I need to write first then focus on editing in February. I think that will help. Write first, edit later. I will try anything at this point. I’m so far behind on my word count, 2,700 words in one week isn’t good. Not when I should have 50,000 by January 31st.

Write first, edit later. Write first, edit later. Write first, edit later. You can do it.
