Shitty 1st Drafts

I believe that Lamont is trying to get her audience to realize that even the greatest writers have trouble starting.  She says that writers just don’t go to their desk, roll up their sleeves, and jump right into creating a masterpiece.  She does not want us to assume that writers can just spit great pieces of writing; instead you go through the grueling process of writing drafts.  She believes that the first stages of the drafts are like children, reckless and not held at fault for any of their mistakes.  Lamont feels like you just need to get something down on the page, just get the gears moving.  I think she says something like the first six pages of a draft might suck but somewhere in there those lines there is a beautiful beginning.  I also think Lamont feels like the process of writing is blocking all those little voices out in your head that distract you.  She goes on to extensively explain the way in which she does this…

                I think Wikipedia allows us somewhat to make a shitty first draft.  I mean there is that option to put your article up for review, but I feel like that kind of hurt my article in the long run.  I felt like the first article I submitted was way better then the second, but that how the Wikipedia guardians go I guess.
