That's not so bad then. I've known mid-sentence or mid-scene editors. My ADHD would never let me do that and actually remember where I left off!

As an trained editor, I'm pretty dang rad at editing (developmental, line, or full manuscript), but I do love a good detective-level proofreading to find those minute misses, like extra spaces.

It's not a bad way to write. But I think a good-old word vomit on the page helps the flow--and then, you can come back to edit it.

And then future me gets here and she HATES that woman! π
I've been there. Finished a whole manuscript only to suddenly feel "Hmm, my main character's name isn't quite right."
Cue the dreaded "Do I copy/replace, or actively search for every instance?"
Oof! That and crying when you write something emotional are always such visceral author reactions I oddly enjoy.
