Quote #10
For me and most of the other writers I know, writing is not rapturous. In fact, the only way I can get anything written at all is to write really, really s***ty first drafts. (3.3)
Yep. One of the dirty secrets of being a writer is that it's sometimes a real pain in the tuchus. But you're allowed to write something lousy; in fact, it's often the best way to get started. Just don't turn in that first draft to an agent hoping it'll sell as is.
