Write drunk. Edit Sober.

‘Write Drunk

Edit Sober.”

Attributed to Hemingway this line  is a little gem in itself .

Here is my take…

As a writer give in

To flights of fancy

Give in to the dance

Of Imagination.

Be drunk with joy

Of writing with all of you.

Enjoy the immersion

Embody your uniqueness

And flow with the words .

Sense the delights in disarray

Just write on…

As you edit

Stay sober 

Be attentive

Be mindful

And aware.

And patient

With yourself.

Most of all

Be here in the now.

Savvy

Ps :I write for joy… so have always enjoyed writing  in a flow though never drunk , I confess I  have enjoyed  the waltz with words as it flows often on.  And yet I also know I have a lots to  learn about editing. It’s still a work in progress. 

What are your thoughts on this ?
