The perfect is the enemy of the good

Voltaire has a very famous quote, “The perfect is the enemy of the good” … I can remember this quote and pull myself out of the pit of self-loathing. I can repeat that quote over and over again until I finally decide that it is more important to allow the story to escape my soul unhindered than it is to ensure that it is edited, pristine, and perfect upon release.
