Shitty First Drafts - Morgan Sousa

    This article explained that writing a relaxed first draft is one of the most important keys to creating a good piece of writing. When I write a paper sometimes I'm too focused on making the first draft absolutely perfect. I constantly type and delete leaving me with blank computer screen. By doing this I ultimately waste my time with writer's block and procrastination. However, by reading "Shitty First Drafts", I have learned a solution to my writing problems. If I am more carefree in the early stage of the writing process, then I will end up with a better finished product. I was surprised to know some of my favorite books started from just pages of ideas that were loosely put together and then polished into works of art. Next time I write a first draft I will make sure to remember the three step writing method and type whatever comes to mind.
