  • A response to something you didn't ask: you're obviously very inspired and you will probably get a lot out of continuing to produce text while you're still full of ideas! Most people are not full of ideas all the time and I think it would be sad to waste it.
  • Responding to your actual question: it sounds to me like lately you write thing A on one day, thing B a few days later, and then decide "well, based on how thing B went, I need to make fundamental changes to thing A."
  • I don't think it makes sense to make small-scale edits to text unless it is basically finalized. It doesn't sound to me like any of your work is anywhere close to being finalized right now.
  • Maybe you should produce a large amount of whatever text you're feeling inspired to write, then do rewrites once you feel low on ideas or once you feel like you'd really like to have a finished product.
  • One other note on your process: do be sure to keep your old drafts! Your approach to writing is likely to change over time and you're likely to fixate on different topics, which means that if you read over them later, you are likely to be inspired by them.
  • They will also look unfamiliar to you in the future: instead of seeing what you intended to write, you will see what you actually wrote, and you'll be better able to figure out what you were doing!
