So, you're writer! I remember reading an article by Peter Drucker[1] a while back about how different people think differently (obviously) and one that resonated with me was people who write -- i.e., sit down and write your thoughts and structure them to develop an idea or POV. I am 100% this, versus say a visual or auditory brainstormer.
Do you delete it all because you're worried about keeping it? I keep my notes but rarely return to them.

- herbertl 6y agoAh—I just meant I would delete the copywork, which is the essay of someone else's I just typed up! I just figured it wasn't mine, plus I get some small satisfaction of "cleaning up," like a very non-sacred version of colored sand in Buddhism. Cool link. I need to spend more time with this, Peter Drucker is brilliant. It sounds like you and I write similarly, I am a meticulous outliner. I really like voice dictation as a writing alternative, but I need to be really focused. e.g., I tried "freewriting" by voice when I was cleaning the bathroom once, and it turned out sloppy. Thanks for starting this topic btw, great question and I'm really liking the discussion.
