SmoothingIt.com Asks: Do You Look Back before You Look Ahead?

[In this series, Creative Blog Profiles, we take a peek at what other creative bloggers are writing about and profile them here. They don’t necessarily know it’s happening (although we do the pingback/trackback where we can), so we’re prepared to remove an entry if they get mad. Hopefully they won’t. We just want to find creative stuff to tell you about.]

Today, I ran across a blog post at SmoothingIt.com by someone who is, quite literally, out there in the blogging wilderness! His name is “Duncan,” and he is a woodsman and writer. He says his site is for folks to get information on outdoor living. Sounds good to me! And the pics on his site make me yearn for my days camping with my friends. The cool breeze. The sound of leaves. Ah, memories.

Anyway, Duncan put up an interesting post about his writing process. He says he doesn’s like to go back and read over drafts until he’s finished with the first run. I personally have a hard time doing that, but it seems to work for Duncan (although, he says he had to break his own rule recently!).

What do you think? You can let us know or head over to Duncan’s site and let him know. Come to think of it, just head over there anyway and look around.

His editing style is certainly something interesting to think about as you write. Thanks Duncan, for getting us thinking (and writing!) today!
