You just keep writing things even though you don't really think you're going anywhere or you believe you're writing garbage. Often you can go back to it a few days later and one of two things will happen--it'll be better than you thought it was and you can revise it into something useful, or it will remind you of something else entirely you should write.(less)

Quotes by Dean Richards (?)

“Human beings are bright, especially compared to other animals”
― Dean Richards, Psychology in Plain English

“pseudomysteries” -- mysteries that come about just because of games with language (Gray, 1991). When we ask, “What is truth?” or “What is love?” we aren’t actually using the words, we’re just laying them out there without using them and asking what they mean.”
― Dean Richards, Psychology in Plain English

“Contextual Theory of Happiness (Parducci, 1968). Parducci argued that we judge how happy or unhappy we are by comparing what we’re going through now with what we’ve experienced in the recent past. If things are going much better right now than we remember them going before, we get downright giddy. If things are going much worse than we remember them being before, we feel unhappy and depressed.”
― Dean Richards, Psychology in Plain English
