Writing jiberish. There are times when we will write jiberish. Now, I can see two instances of this happening. The first is when you don’t know what to write about but you are putting words on paper and continuing to write anything that comes to mind until something meaningful comes out. The other time is when what you have written appears to be utter crap. Believe it or not, both of these instances are useful and have their own place in writing.
　　When you are freewriting or you begin to write nonsense words and phrases just to be putting words on paper, you are actually helping yourself more than you know it. You are building upon your creativity and forcing or demanding that your mind thinks up a subject. You are teaching your mind that you are not going to stop writing, so you might as well give me something useful to say. By forcing yourself to continue writing, you are improving upon the writing and creativity process. As you continue to write, you will eventually hit upon something that sparks your imagination and you have a topic to write about.
　　The second instance is what most of us feel like a lot of the time. We feel that what we have written is no good, but we keep putting words on paper. Even if that is the case and what you have written is utter crap, it’s not a complete waste.
　　I am of the frame of mind that I keep everything I have written, even if it is utter crap. That is because I believe that sometime down the road, it may spark an idea for me and I wouldn’t wan to have thrown it away and not have fodder for the idea. The other aspect of this is, that what you have written, may have been bad, however the idea is good and it just needs reworked. By reworking something bad, you may be able to turn it into something good.
　　The main idea is to do what we as authors do best, write and put words on paper. It doesn’t matter if the words are good or not, we are not to judge the work until it is complete, we are only to write. We worry too much about what others will think or if it is good enough. But the truth is, we need to stick to our job and write, otherwise we aren’t doing what we should be doing.
　　Correcting the work is for editors or at least ourselves when we are in editing mode. Judging the work is for critics and our audience. Leave those duties to those whose job it is. Our job is simply to write and at the time, we are to put out the best we are capable of at that moment. We are not to worry about anything else, just write.
　　So what do you think, does this make sense or is it just utter crap?
