The Subterraneans - Jack Kerouac

Here's Kerouac's alter ego advising his girlfriend how to write:

I insist, say everything on your mind, don’t hold it back, don’t analyse or anything as you go along, say it out

No, no, NO! Consider, craft, edit and re-edit until it's as close to perfection as you can envisage. DON'T just dribble it all out in a drug-hazy fug, you self-indulgent, tedious solipsist.

Not a favourite.
