Thanks, @bex-dk, for sharing this helpful discourse on the benefits and perils of freewriting, and also for sharing your heart with us.
I also enjoy the blessing/curse of having a very wide range of interests. Among them, I do love to write, and all too often overthink the things that I write. Perhaps I will try some "freewriting" with one or two of my more creative concepts, and see what falls out.
But thank you also for the caution against publishing a pre-draft. ;)
As one who does not necessarily want to make a career of writing, perhaps doing so would be less of a black eye for me; nevertheless, your cautionary remarks are well-taken.
😄😇😄
Even if you don't want to make a career of writing, someone as talented as yourself could make a nice income with it as a hobby. You've got the quality to go mainstream.
Thank you my friend. I appreciate your encouragement! :D
