Unlearning - Learning how to do it

Every writer has a fairly shitty first draft that's the whole point of a draft-

Two cracked windshields later and Chick was still straddling the high Sierra mountain pass on I-80.

Lisa went to Phoenix online and majored in flapdoodle with a minor in balderdash - and now she has a loan and a case of anxiety.

Art was upset because he didn't know for sure if sweets fats and oils were the good stuff or the bad stuff? A basket filled with persimmons were sitting in an orange room when the latest abstract flooded into the news.

Untie knots from beams, Loose your breeches come up with leeches.

In good times the branches are visible, in bad times the branches are visible too. The branches that touch this causeway, near the loop downtown say "Momma Mia."

That pita bread was in the oven way too long and it turned into some real fucking awesome soil. It is tempting to make more play dough, but Sally worked with it long and hard enough, until it left deep marks.

Megan had a bicycle seat bust in the middle of a Lance Armstrong Race for Cancer - and if a girl has a loose stool in a good soaker with increasing wind would anybody be there to hear it break?

Patient walks into the doctor says doctor I have a problem. Doctor says "What is it?" Patient says "I have no desire". Doctor gives patient a pill. Two weeks later patient returns says "Doctor I have a problem." Doctor says "what is the problem?" Patient says "Doctor I have desire."
