Great advice. This notion rhymes with the advice which is often useful when a friend shares that they "want to have a difficult conversation with someone, but they're worried a conflict might happen when all they want is to understand and try to make up."
ooh i love this, i've definitely said that a few times but didn't make the connection until i read your comment. gonna use this relentlessly now hahaha
Love this advice--readers are hungry for this more honest style . . . The genre and conventions of the late 20th and early 21st century styles (which I'd say were driven by academia) are dying. The future is authenticity.

"Start with that!"

incredibly easy when you realize:
- no one will ever read your very early drafts but you;
-computers reduce the cost of editing to nearly zero; it's not like you need to retype a hardcopy
you can just spill your guts into a first draft and trust your future self to refine it into something readable later
thank you for this transmission! 😃

5 months after reading this, this essay is still something I think about all the time, for all kinds of writing.
This is a life changing piece, thank you!!!
One of those pieces of advice that rings true, feels true and can still be hard to implement. I liked how you framed it here!

Awesome. I find myself in this state more often than I’d like to admit. Why can’t i just write what i’m feeling?? hah!
This is not useful. Get lost you nameless troll.
If you want to WRITE. GO READ great WORKS~! And gain on the ground experience in the subject.
The Stories will pour out of you like you are fountain for the rest of your life.
I had to laugh at this comment, in my head it was made by an epic mountain troll who's really into Classic Novels, shouted in a booming voice :D
