"Rough it Up: For a Better First Draft, Get Messy!"

- How trying to get it right the first time hinders you from writing your best.
- When to give yourself permission to make mistakes.
- How to throw your writing throttle wide open.
- Why messy drafts can lead to lively, crystal-clear writing.
- How plowing through poor ideas leads to original, great ones.
- How easy your second draft will be after you've written a free-flowing first.
