Write Drunk, Edit Sober

from $22.00
Sounds like a solid plan. EXCEPT:

(According to the internet:) "The quote 'Write drunk, edit sober' is often attributed to Ernest Hemingway, but there's no definitive evidence that he actually said or wrote this phrase. The quote has become something of a cliché in discussions about writing, but scholars and biographers have been unable to locate a primary source where Hemingway explicitly made this statement.

In fact, some experts argue that the quote contradicts Hemingway's known habits and advice about writing. Hemingway was actually a disciplined writer who adhered to a strict writing schedule, usually writing in the mornings and editing his work carefully. While he was known for his love of alcohol, there's no substantial proof that he advocated writing under the influence as a general practice."
