I’ve never been able to write anything without organizing my thoughts and getting myself into the right mindset beforehand. I was never able to just sit down and write on command. Creating an “outline” (or any of the other “tips” I was given) never worked at all. On essay tests in school I generally ended up doing all the actual writing in the last 10 minutes.

In one of the other episodes, when Calvin’s mom questions him about the progress of his paper, he replies: “I’ve almost begun!”
