The quote above is probably the best advice I have ever followed. When you drink parts of the ass-hole part of your brain turns off, allowing you to write without limiting yourself or stopping yourself. When you are sober that ass-hole part of your brain then reads what you have previously written and judges you constantly for making basic mistakes… That ass-hole part makes a good editor.
Still… I get a lot of writing done when I don’t have my brain over thinking what I am writing.
Deanna Wiltshire graduated from the Lakehead University with a BA in English and Bachelors in Education. She likes cozy sweaters, chai tea, gaming, volunteering within the art community, great food and her Netflix.
When she isn’t vigorously writing, she is crocheting, drawing, or photographing her adventures with her partner (Mr. Canuck). They live in a small city in Ontario, Canada and proud pet parents to two little troublemakers – Argo and Athens (cats).
Child of the Light is the first of the Prophecy Six Series and her debut novel published in 2015. Children of Sirphan is her most recent release (December 2016) and second book of the series. The third book of the series – Sons of Lost Kings – is set to release late fall of 2018.

I did this in college. Churned out good ideas that required heavy proofing.
