stream of consciousness can be good

often it doesn't do as much for the reader as it does for the writer but its still worth it.

ever had conversations that are a stream of conc? in a very bizarre way, they do actually make sense

Mysteria,
I like your phrase about trends, they encourage you to look the other way. Usually I do, too, but when I'm excited, really focused on getting at the meat of an idea, then I like to let the words spill out, til I get at what I really mean: put down words, sentences without stopping to think, is this right, is this in the right order. The inner editor can block ideas sometimes.  Time to edit later.

Hello Angel...  It is a fun exercise when I have a mind for it.  One of these times I will be completely free to speak my mind even to myself...

Had considered it too...
I have heard of this as well, just can't bring myself to do it. I am too, obsessive compulsive to leave any mistakes.
