Author here. Thanks – yes designers in my experience often do this, but clearly not always.
The point I'm making is that other creative processes let you start with something to build on. Maybe writing should be that way too.

As a amateur song writer, i try to write snippets of lyrics down as they come. Whenever I'm trying to finish something but can't think of anything suitable, I have my rhyme book with tons of stuff to refer to. In some cases it doesn't even have to be quotes from what I've already written down that I might end up using. It could be word/rhyme/rhythm patterns that i pick up from material that I have available.
So yeah I concur with the title of the article. :)
