#1 The basic unit of writing practice is the timed exercise. You may time yourself for ten minutes, twenty minutes, or an hour. It is up to you. Whatever amount of time you choose for that session, you must commit to it and for that full period: keep your hand moving, don’t pause to reread the line you have just written, and don’t edit yourself.

#2 When you write from first thoughts, you are not covering up what is actually happening or being felt. You are imbuing your present with tremendous energy. It is what is. Your writing becomes more vibrant and alive.
