Good Enough: Getting the Writing Written and Letting It Go

I feel like I can relate a lot to Bowman because she is a perfectionist, yet she is a procrastinator. I always put off my assignments to the last minute, but when I go to do them, I want them to be my best work. From this, I have learned that you should work piece by piece. Within my research paper, we have written each piece seperately like the literature review, methodology, and works cited. This means that you can do the writing process step by step instead of trying to cram it in all in one day. Also, she points out the fact that writing will never be perfect. Some of the greatest writers were not perfect like Mark Twain, so why should any of us expect to be perfect. The third point that I learned was that writing is never finished because writing always moves forward. This has to do with my project because I am always able to revise and fix anything within my paper.
