Goodness, a verification code? What, are you expecting a bomb in the comments?! What a brilliant way of describing writing. At the moment, I've had a minor rant at having run into 2 self-publishing companies, who have tried to rob me at the stagecoach. Guns raised (in the form of a document) for me to agree to. One company's was worse than slave labour, the second company FORGOT to include any financial details at all. I know, just lucky, aren't I?
Great ideas! One of the things I found really helpful in reading on creativity was the separation of writing and editing. I had always written and scratched out and typed and backspaced as I went. Your brain has to be in different places for those two activities, so the more you get comfortable with writing uncensored is the more and more easily you can write. There will always be time to edit.

yep, steer clear of these companies, in my view. Self-publishing should not be costly. Hire individuals using Upwork or Fiverr, not a team or agency
Really? Is that what you did? I don't have the technical skills to go completely down the DIY route.
It is! I will write more on this topic. There may be some good agencies around but I have not used them.
Going offline to 23 June. Thank you Alex

Yes! How’d you know? Well of course you did. Because you had the courage to show me how. Thanks Alex

one thing that definitely helps me write is capturing my ideas and knowing what i want to write about the night before i do write.
