I can't help but edit as I go, snipping and tweaking the sentence every time before I move onto the next one.

Considering I loathe everything I write and start something new after 1'000-2'000 words, I'm worried this is a bad habit.

Have any of you found that, when you leave editing out of your initial writing process, you complete the stories you start?

Failing that, how do you guys approach first drafts -- so to speak.

Writing is pretty much like painting: You lay out the foundation/background before you fill in the details.

Leaving editing until the end also helps you see how things fit within the grand scheme of it all.

An forcefully marketed ebook called the secret dna of writing essays and short stories. The core concept that paragraphs, chapters and documents need to end with a reversal or punchline is interesting.
