It's advice I give everyone as it's the only way to be truly creative. That "blank piece of paper syndrome" comes from trying to formulate things perfectly in your head before putting the words on paper. I find if I just start writing and let it flow, I can write endless pages without coming up for air. THEN you go back and tweak it, refine it, redirect it. Last thing you do is read it out loud --- that focuses your mind so you don't skip words --- and since we all know spellcheck has its own problems, it's a great way to catch spelling issues too. Enjoyed visiting your blog. Loved this post. It’s advice I give everyone as it’s the only way to be truly creative.
