RE: slow writer

I fully understand what you mean. I am a perfectionist myself. Others
gave good advice and I want to suggest offer my .02. I sense that you
want your writing to be perfect - you do not know when to let go. Your
start into a project seems fine but I bet you keep fine tuning what you
write. This is the nature of your personality. You can learn to overcome
this but you first must understand your Melancholy personality. I highly
recommend you read the book, "Personality Plus - How to Understand
Others by Understanding Yourself" by Florence Littauer. She also wrote
an excellent book about workplace personalities called "Personality
Puzzle."
