Shitty First Drafts

I believe Lamott has a very great point to the fears and pressure of writing. I always feel they way she does when it comes to writing a paper. There are times when I feel like there is no way I am gonna get this paper done, and have no clue where to start. I guess I've never thought about the whole first, second, and third draft. I've always tried to make my first draft almost perfect enough to just turn it in and settle for the grade I recieved. Now as a future educator, I now know that that's not the way to think. I want my students to want to write and to enjoy writing. Lamott's ways of thinking and process of putting a fine paper together makes a lot of sense and helps out.
