Writing for me is largely about rewriting.
When I write something, I constantly rewrite.
I don't find writing easy. That is because I do take great care; I rewrite a lot.

I'm not a good writer. It takes me a long time to get there. I write and then rewrite and revise and do it over and over until I'm satisfied.
I don't do much rewriting, because each paragraph is very carefully put together.
