Ixthos Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Hi guys. I wrote something in my journal a few days back, and while it wasn't strictly just encouragement for writing fiction, and isn't particularly poetic, I felt like it might be helpful to share it. It is hard to write a first draft well. It is easy to write a terrible first draft It is impossible to edit a blank page It is easy to edit terrible writing into passable It is difficult to find the motivation to write a bad first draft when you hold a false ideal in your mind It is easy to edit a passable text into a good one It is tricky to edit good text into great text It is so satisfying to make a good final draft! I hope everyone writing something now, whether for a project, for fiction, for any intended role, is well. I hope your writing goes well, and I hope you are motivated and encouraged, of good cheer, and have some sort of encouragement for yourselves. Take care and God bless! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
