To pick one example: the point of first drafts isn’t to spew out a conventional structure that you then tweak, filled with generic writing that you then make personal

It’s to capture the weird, the spontant, and the disjointed but strangely appropriate

The first draft is there to lay down your raw humanity on the page, that you then polish into something comprehensible
