Octopus writer
Sometimes I feel like the fish in this comic!
o you identify more with the octopus or the fish? I have tended to be more like the fish, but am gradually getting better at:
1) Enjoying my own journey rather than comparing myself to others.
2) Getting my first draft down more quickly, resisting the urge to edit as I go. I know some writers can do this and stay productive; I've tended to get bogged down! I'll write more on this in my Debbie's Blatherings soon.
For more info about me and my work, see DebbieOhi.com. Please note that all content belongs to me (Debbie Ridpath Ohi) - feel free to share the link to this post, but please do not scoop/re-share the comic without permission. Thank you!
