Writing is like driving a car at night. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way. El Doctorow

I heard this quote a few days ago and I wasn't sure what it meant until today. It means you don't have to know your whole story ahead of time you just write and see what happens. This makes me feel confident because I am a free writer. I usually develop my story based on just random things that pop into my head and not knowing the whole story is ok.
