"Shitty First Drafts" - Kylie Hutton

Shitty First Drafts was very enlightening on the pitfalls on the writing process. I feel as though any time a writer goes to compose they expect their writing to be perfect on the first draft. However, from my own personal experience that is not the case, it usually takes several attempts and revisions to get a piece of writing worthy of turning in or publishing. Anne Lamott's comedic and satirical approach to explain the writing process to her fellow writers, it also inspires writers like me, that can get discouraged by writers block or having some shitty first drafts. Specifically, the part about when reading other writers works that seem to be perfect, it helps to realize that you never read all those other shitty first drafts, that even the best of writers experiences the same exact hardships. I believe in my writing it well help to keep from getting discouraged and help me realize its okay to not get it right the first time.
