I sit down at my laptop. I write fhe first sentence, and the rest just comes pouring out of me. It never stops. When I need to check a reference or something, I just google it.
By the time I did, what you did, I would be hopelessly muddled up. All the data inside my head wouldn't know where to go. As it is, I just write it all down in my head and by the time I sit down to write it, it just comes pouring out.
I have been reading a book a day for a lifetime. i read for a good 5 hours every day. I rad abstracts, news and magazines from various countries. During my school days, I read between 2 and 4 books a day. All that knowledge is inside my head.
