Writing...

Ever work on anything for ages and ages, and feel like you've done a lot only to realise you word count is actually pitiful?

Stupid fiction writing.

That's what it means to me. Be honest to the story you're telling rather than the one you want to tell or the one you think you should tell.

I think he also means don't worry too much about mechanics or details while you're writing. It's counterproductive to narrative flow. No need to make it harder than it already is to get words on the screen.
