When I see old-schools writers agonize like this, I realize 90% of being a blogger is giving yourself permission to hit publish when you get bored, rather than when you’re satisfied. This is why I don’t consider myself an essayist. Essayists live about 10 rewrites past me.https://twitter.com/anne_theriault/status/1187516963125370882 …

I am really trying to get better at writing multiple drafts instead of the One Perfect Draft That I Plot Out Entirely In My Head And Edit As I Go, but it hurts my heart to write a fast crap draft, even though I know I will fix it tomorrow and all around it’s a much better process
