Wow! I read the article on the Writer's Relief page. There is SO MUCH to be mindful of.
That is very good.

But I also wonder if its so bad to just write something and then come back later to revise...at least for me.

Trying to keep each of those suggestions in mind when writing would be like trying to tell someone who's blindfolded how to ride a bike. (How could one possibly explain to another how to keep their balance on a bicycle in words?) Does that make sense? Rules and guidance are crucial, but it seems worrying or over-scrutiny is also a hindrance.

Maybe I'm wrong. :)
