   I never tell myself to write badly, just often do…has the same effect, ends up in the binX

     I suppose it’s not so much telling yourself it’s ok to write badly as gritting your teeth and just plugging away even when your head is leaden and your fingers are like sausages (not necessarily fat fingers, you understand but feeling fat and lumpy and uncreative) and you know it’s very unlikely that any good can come out of it because writing rubbish is better than not writing at all. I guess. But is that true for everyone? Do the bad writing days undermine self confidence?
