The other thing the very good writers I know do that I don’t is practice. That is they will write explicitly for no audience but in a form they’d want to present to a hypothetical audience for a hypothetical reason.
This allows them all the benefits of practice in other endeavors. They can experiment, get faster, build “muscle memory” etc.
I don’t know why I keep being surprised that the answer to being good at things is working at it.
