&lt;p&gt;If you are writing in first person, author and editor Elaine Ash suggests diving straight into the writing process and not worrying about proper spelling and grammar. By concentrating your energy on creation and imagination, your true voice will come through. That voice may not be as eloquent as it could be, but Ash believes there is something to be said for the ineloquent voice. She says it&amp;#39;s most important for the voice to be honest and impactful. Spelling and grammar errors can be fixed later in the process, but the focus should be on a strong story and voice in the beginning.&lt;/p&gt;
