JP Shawword to the wise: JUST WRITE!
How many of you are like me when it comes to being overly picky about your work? I am always going back, editing, and re-editing, redoing, changing this and that, taking out a comma to make the sentence flow better--only to put it back in where it was in the first place. I spend too much time doing all these things, thinking it's making my writing better, instead of just writing.
Well it's time to stop!
The above is a quote taken from Molly O'keefe's website with advice on how to stay in the game and get the job done. Read it. Commit it to memory. Follow the advice. If you do you will be like me, and stop the editing process, shove your fingers down your throat (or on your keyboard) and vomit on the screen as Molly puts it.
Happy Up-chuck everyone!

"GET OVER IT. If you want a career in this business you need to sit down and write and you need to sit down and write faster. Check out SUSAN MALLERY’s workshop on this subject. It’s hard to write fast and to write well - but it can be done. It takes practice and trusting yourself and your instinct. Stop endlessly tweaking, non-stop editing. Just sit down and vomit onto the screen."
