I've learned I'm a very lazy writer. I'm more inclined to write if I have a deadline and even then I'll procrastinate for most of the month.
I can write 20K in a weekend (this doesn't help with the procrastination)
I need an outline for both plot and characters - I think all the time I spent procrastinating was because I didn't really know my characters.
I can edit, it's not that awful. Professional authors rewrite all the time, as much as the work needs. The first draft isn't going to be anywhere close to perfect. I always knew this but I needed to hear it enough times before I believed it, if that makes sense.
