“When writing, don’t try to edit as you go. Say what you want to say, unencumbered by the constant commentary from that fussy little editor swimming around inside your head. First, get it all down.

This way, you often end up with better-than-expected material.” Gareth Branwyn —Gar’s Tips on Sucks-Less WritingStreetTech.com)
