JAFirst drafts are never perfect, and they are not supposed to be. The real value of a first draft is in what it teaches you about your story, your characters, and your writing process. Every draft reveals blind spots, sparks new ideas, and helps you see what the book can become. Instead of chasing perfection on the first try, focus on getting words on the page so you have something to shape and refine. The lessons you learn from finishing a first draft will guide every revision that follows and make you a stronger writer in the long run.

GAwhere to find handwritten manuscripts of some of your favorite authors?
This place of course!!
Save this for your trip to Paris ♥️
It genuinely felt so special to get to see the actual handwriting of some of the world’s greatest authors.
Location 📍
Librairie des Editions des Saints Pères
19 Rue de l’Odéon,
75006 Paris, France
And I’m not sure I could think of a better gift for a book lover. The books themselves are so beautifully crafted and they only make 1000 copies of each.
One thing I loved too is that the bookstore also said they love when people just come in to look as well - even though the books look so impressive from the outside, don’t hesitate to go on in a take a look! They don’t mind at all and it makes them very happy :)
If you’d like even more tips for where to visit in Paris, I have my Ultimate Guide to Paris LIVE now
🥰 Just comment “Croissant Club” and I’ll send you the link 🤍
Thank u for the invitation @spbooksofficial 🫶

MOI LOVE writing first drafts. There is definitely a writing high that comes with creating something entirely new, and entirely my own.
.
Reading my first draft is something else entirely😅.
.
Do you have a favorite step in the writing process?

HO✅ First Drafts Don’t Need Perfection — Just Start Writing ✍️🎙
🙏 Watch the Video & Don’t Forget to Like, Comment, Subscribe, & Share 🧡
💠 In this powerful episode of Hot Topics Live Podcast, we talk about one simple truth: you don’t need a perfect first draft — you just need to begin.
✨ Writing becomes easier when you stop overthinking and start telling your story. Just sit down and let the words flow, even if they feel messy at first.
📝 Whether you’re writing a personal story, an application, or a life experience, the first step is getting it out of your head and onto the page.
💬 Talk on paper the same way you would talk to someone in real life. Tell your story honestly, clearly, and from the heart.
⚡ Fear of “doing it wrong” often stops people from starting. Let go of fear — progress matters more than perfection.
💡 Bottom line: You can’t fix a blank page. Write first. Edit later.
🎙 Watch now and be reminded that your story matters — even in its rough form.

BR2024. Blink and you miss it.
But we didn’t.
From first drafts to final projects, every project was about making sh*t look good- and making it count.
Behind the four walls of the Brandemic studio was obsession, long nights, and a team that made it all look effortless.
It wasn’t.
Big shoutout to our clients for getting it. You didn’t play it safe- and neither did we.
2025. Let’s do it again, but bigger.

KEMe, knowing full well that first drafts are supposed to be messy:
🫠 “But like… not this messy…”
Anyway if you’re also quietly spiraling in a google doc at 1am, you’re not alone. FOLLOW ME ON TIKTOK @kendall_bousquet for more writer spiral content! 😋♥️

BRFirst drafts and beach dogs have the same rule: run toward the thing that excites you.
I finished the first draft of my novel two weeks ago and I’m looking forward to the editing phase. But for now, I’m taking a beat and celebrating this win.
Onward.

GLThe uncomfortable truth about AI no one admits 👇
Confession:
I realized I was getting intellectually lazy with AI.
Not publicly. Quietly.
My work looked better than ever, cleaner, faster, polished.
That’s what scared me.
So this month I stopped using AI for:
• First drafts
• Core arguments
• Strategic decisions
• Hard feedback
• Messy thinking
Because I noticed something uncomfortable:
When AI speaks first, my brain speaks less.
The tension disappears.
And tension is where sharp judgment is built.
AI is powerful at refinement.
But if it replaces the struggle, it slowly replaces your edge.
So I changed the rule:
I go first. AI goes second.
If I can’t think it through without AI,
I’m not ready to scale it with AI.
📌 Use AI to sharpen your thinking, not substitute it.

AUBehind every good book, is the person who read the terrible first draft and caught all the plot holes or lack of detail.🫣😂
I hate writing first drafts. Specifically the first 20,000 words of a new book. I just keep telling myself to get some words down even if they don’t make sense and I’ll fill in the plot holes and inconsistencies later.
When I start a new book, even though I’m working on my 17th, I’m reminded of how freaking hard it is to write a book. Every. Single. Time.
