Pretty much every author I've ever read about on that topic says that their first draft is always horrendous. The difference between an author and someone who merely wants to be one is that the former writes without caring how it is, knowing (s)he can fix it the next time round.

That said, I've never been able to put that theory to practice. I've always wanted to write but I've never really been able to transform my ideas into actual prose.
