"Slow is Fearless" is the title of a chapter in one of my favorite writing books, Heather Sellers' Chapter after Chapter.
I really loved that chapter. I also loved a sentence from it. "Time-soaked writing is good writing."
Heather Sellers teaches in this chapter that a lot of the time slow is good. Maybe even better than going fast on some things...writing is one of them.
The other day I was watching The Princess Bride and a quote from that triggered this same though too. Miracle Max says, "You rush a miracle, and you get rotten miracles." (or something along those lines).
Hearing about these things make me not feel so badly about how slow I am being on my work. But at the same time I don't want it to be laziness. So I'm trying to find that fine line and accept the slow factor without it becoming an excuse for laziness.
Anyway, that is all I have for right now and I just thought I should post something.
