Hey all!

As I'm progressing from a beginner, I'm finding that a lot of songs demand a faster picking technique (with a plectrum). I can't seem to find a lesson on the site with pointers around how/where to anchor my right hand. I can see that some guitarists place the corner of their palm on the bottom top corner of the bridge but I get confused when I can't reach the high e string using this method...

Does anyone have any pointers for anchoring techniques? Do you need an anchoring technique at all or could you just forget about it?
