"I try to leave out the parts that people skip."
~Elmore Leonard
Excellent advice! We all know how we slave away for our writing and we become attached to it. However, there is a time when you just have to let parts go. I know you worked long and hard on that paragraph (or page, or chapter), but if it's not relevant to your story or project as a whole it ends up being unnecessary filler. I know it's painful-but your story and your readers will thank you. You gotta let it go, man. Leave out the boring parts that people are going to skip anyway.
Prompt? The Gym...
Just do it write now.
