A man without contradictions to balance him will soon veer off.Collection: Block

I haven’t had trouble with writer’s block. I think it’s because my process involves writing very badly. My first drafts are filled with lurching, clichéd writing, outright flailing around.

It seems writer’s block is often a dislike of writing badly and waiting for writing better to happen.Collection: Block

But what they really do is undermine the creativity that can be harvested from thinking free.Collection: Block
