Writing without references handy

Writing is hard enough with you have everything you need handy; it’s a lot harder when you’re missing something. Today, I was hoping to finish off a lesson I was writing for a class at my church, but I didn’t have any of my reference materials handy. Even though I only have a couple paragraphs or so to go, I just couldn’t get it done.

Writing without references handy won’t win anyone a CPM or anything, and it also doesn’t exactly result in accurate prose. So I had to put the project off.

That’s where creative writing is a bit more flexible; your handiest reference material is your brain, and it’s hard to lose that.
