Drafting

I've composed two additional short passages about my Teen years but they seem incomplete or the title I started with ended up not fitting the content. I think this is a normal writing phenomenon and one that we should embrace. Good writing can occur in fits and starts and does not always emerge from our finger tips fit as a fiddle. In fact, revision is nearly always necessary and prudent. It is wise to rethink and reconsider, to tweak and to play with our art. Take a look at a painting up close, for example. There's rarely a single layer of paint, but instead several different layers of mixed, blended and shaded colors. That's how we make things beautiful and mature our art. SO, please embrace drafting and celebrate every stage of your writing. Post what you write. Write every day. Practice your craft. Hone your voice. Refrain from censoring yourself too much.

Have a terrific day of writing. See my new post below.
