I too could write pages and pages at a time... it makes editing quite daunting at times, especially on days when my working memory is totally taxed already. I sometimes wish for a program that would literally block me from writing if I went ABOVE a certain page limit (probably when I got 20% over my goal). Do you ever use constraints like that? I'm working on a book about the topic now based on some research I've done (http://caneelian.com/research & http://bit.ly/blankpg) and I'd be interested in your creative process. How you figure out which darlings to kill? Totally agree with you about the thrill of the blank page.

Also even though I'm not a designer, I work in fits too. I'll fix like 5 bugs one day and then another I don't even want to look at the list of bugs. I tend to feel a lot better about myself when I'm on the productive side of the curve. Or maybe it's that I'm productive when I feel better. Hmm.
