Writing

Must blog fast. Finally got go ahead on a project with about 150 written pages due before May 1. Best thing to do is just type it all out. Don’t worry about being perfect. Once the content is on paper… it’s easier to modify and beautify. This material has sidebars/boxes. Those I’ll fill in after doing an initial draft.

Just started reading A Writer’s Coach last night. Writers struggle with coming up with that dreamy opening sentence in a book. The author recommends coming up with a tagline that sums up the book. Once you write the chapter, story or whatever… delete the tagline. You should have something solid by now.

What do you do when you have a short writing deadline?
