After reading both articles I found that I wrote my first drafts according to both authors ideas. However when it came down to the key ideas and storyline I was sure to make it as clear as possible, which is why I would choose George Dilas philosophy of writing over Lamott (generally speaking). Lamotts ideas I would only follow for the nitty gritty; punctuation, spelling, order, etc. It helped me to keep my writing to flow. It also allows me to get my ideas out on the paper before I forget them. Then I would find myself unable to go on without being sure that my idea, what I wanted to say, is exactly what I wrote. So in the end and for the sake of simplicity I would side more with George Dilas idea of writing as opposed to Lamotts.
