>Tellers of stories with ink on paper, not that they matter any more, have been either swoopers or bashers. Swoopers write a story quickly, higgledy-piggledy, crinkum-crankum, any which way. Then they go over it again painstakingly, fixing everything that is just plain awful or doesn’t work. Bashers go one sentence at a time, getting it exactly right before they go on to the next one. When they’re done they’re done. I am a basher. Most men are bashers, and most women are swoopers.

I'm kind of weird because I do tend to write quickly but even my initial work rarely needs much editing after the fact. I'm basically Mozart from Amadeus when Salieri finds out that he doesn't make drafts.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I heard anecdotes that Vonnegut would make corrections to his writing as he was being given critiques in real time, so wouldn't that make him a bit if a swooper too?
