Writing is a lonely business and there are times when we are our own worst enemy. How many times have you been working on your rough draft and found yourself searching for the right word? I have one question, Why?
When writing that rough draft you shouldn’t be worrying
about the perfect word. Your goal is to get words on the paper. That’s it. When
you go back to polish/edit your WIP is when you look at the words to see if they
convey what you want them to.
Writing Tip:
Don’t sweat the small stuff – don’t edit while doing that rough draft. Who cares if you use the same word twenty times on a page. That is something you can fix later. Just write. Let the passion take you over.

Bio: Writing for Barbara Donlon Bradley started innocently enough, like most she kept diaries,
journals, and wrote an occasional letter but she also had a vivid imagination
and wrote scenes and short stories adding characters to her favorite shows and
comic books. As time went on she found the passion for writing to be a strong
drive for her. Humor is also very strong in her life. No matter how hard she
tries to write something deep and dark, it will never happen. That humor bleeds
into her writing. Since she can’t beat it she has learned to use it to her
advantage. Now she lives in Tidewater Virginia with two cats, one mother in law
– whose 87 now, her husband and son.
