I really enjoyed your post. I opted to read it instead of watching it.
When I write, I revise my work many, many times. Is not unusual that I go over the same three hundred words up to ten times, sometimes even more. Often times I make subtle changes, other times I replace key words that lead to a completely different sentence, and more rewriting. The Thesaurus is also a close friend of mine.
Do you revise your work constantly?
Another thing I do is write combination of words in my head and then shape the paragraph to complement the phrase I thought was fetching. Is this a common?
I've never had a writing coach and you seem to have some authority in the subject, so I thought I ask.
Thank you for sharing your this post.

Hi Stephanie. Great tip. I haven't tried this for my article and content writing yet, - just other writing outside of WA, but I really should because I too have found it useful. Great to know I'm not the only one who can remove all common distractions and yet expertly find more! I will apply this tip more often.
Also great that you posted a video, - people get to know their fellow WA-ers a bit more that way and it's nice. Happy writing.
