"Writing doesn’t just clarify your existing ideas; it generates more of them."
So true! Redrafting and self-editing involves so much more than just getting the commas in the right places. This is how we see new linkages that weren't obvious at first. It's how we become more discerning, so we can define the limits and strengths of our concepts more precisely. And it's one of the best ways of opening up new avenues of thought. (If A is valid, then B, C and D become possible.)
