"Don't get it right, just get it written". James Thurber. This is a quote that is often bandied about with regard to creative writing. I was watching a documentary last night about a guy trying to find financing for an independent film he was making and a variation of this philosophical statement came up. I suppose that the reason it is so commonplace is because it is true. All writers at some point find themselves procrastinating to a greater or lesser degree. While writing this simple blog post, I’ve been distracted by incoming email and a message notification from my phone. Sometimes I will draw the curtains in my office so I don’t end up aimlessly staring out of the window at life’s rich pageant or the bird on Mrs Coletart’s roof. Because I am an organised person and like to plan, sometimes I focus too much upon the detail of my writing, rather than just getting the raw ideas down. Hence even the most simplistic of blog posts can at times take an hour or more to get written.
