Meredith Mooring @meredithmooring.bsky.social · 09/03/2026I definitely agree with this. I used to be so caught up in the parts of my stories that weren't working. Instead of finishing the draft, I'd get stuck fixing the same early issues. I did not learn much about writing until I forced myself to finish manuscripts I didn't feel 100% confident with. 030
