A thought on writing (and not revising until the draft is done)

“I learned this lesson too late, frankly: Do not judge it while you’re doing it. Do not go back and fix things that are 20 pages ago when you’re already 20 pages past that. You’ll do that later. Hustle to that finish line, get that thing done.”
— Brendan Hunt

He plays Coach Beard on Ted Lasso, and behind the scenes, Brendan Hunt is also one of the show’s writers and key producers.

This quote — some advice for writers for the screen or otherwise — is drawn from an interview he and Jason Sudeikis gave to the trade publication Backstage in 2021.
