“The first draft of anything is shit.”

Dat doesn’t explain how I got a 98 on my final paper, that I only made one draft of!

I have often said that the secret to writing is rewriting. In your case, though, it’s entirely possible that your teacher just said, “Fuck it. Give everybody an A. Where’s my scotch?”

I’m not familiar with ice soccer terminology, but I’ll assume it was a good pun.

Dunno, I think it depends on the circumstances. For a good chunk of what writing I have done my method has been “get pissed at the alternative”. That sort of writing works best the first time around. Trying a rewrite on something like that in my experience seems to come out flat. Proofreading, tweaking, yes. Rewrite no.

It wasn’t an English paper. So grammar only counts against us if it obscures the meaning of the writing!
