Do forced pieces of literature ever turn out good?
I have this short story that I'm working on for a creative writing class - I have it all worked out in my head, it's pretty complex and I think I could really make it work; it's just that I'm only at the first half of my first draft, and tomorrow it my deadline. Now I'm staying up late, zoned out on coffee writing it because I really don't want to miss this opportunity.
Any tips/experiences with writing at an accelerated pace/in a sort of forced way?
first tip would be to actually write instead of shitpost

not for me atleast. i dont like to write myself out. I write till theres still a bit of the story in me. then i wait for it to get bigger again and i prune off some more branches.
Apparently Kafka wrote The Judgement in 8 hours

This.
Just get the first draft on paper, and go from there. If you have to turn in the first, so be it. You're just trying to hit deadline with this draft anyway, not trying to create a "good piece of literature." Also, if it's just a first for class, then I would bet you have workshops and times for revisions, right? Just don't procrastinate on the revision.

shitposting is the most honest form of art
