I enjoy having the ability to stop if I need to, in case I have to lend my attention to something less important, like work or food. But I’m not as willing to just pause and go back when writing a first draft. Sometimes I’m “in the zone” and need to stay there. With editing, I can stop and start, which is less disruptive to my life (ha! I say that like I have a life). I like the feeling of writing that first draft better, though. There’s a freedom in spilling onto a page with little or no concern as to what’s coming out.

I actually find editing to move more fluidly and consistently than writing new material.
