AboutFree_Write is a community to inspire fresh, imaginative writing. All rights belong to the individual poster and may not be reprinted or copied without permission.
Mission: Free writing is a process by which on sets a timer for a given amount of time and then begins to write whatever words come to mind and does not stop writing until the timer sounds that time is up. The point is to reach the unconscious imagery of the creative mind, so it is necessary not to stop to critique or examine what you are writing, or to stop and re-write. Let it FLOW.
Steps:
1. Set a timer for the amount of time you want. Anything less than 5 minutes may not allow you to get beyond the self-consciousness of writing like this and anything more than 10 minutes may be wearisome.
2. Put your pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and beginning writing. Do not stop. Do not think. Simply write what comes to you.
3. When the time is up, record it here. Please give it a title in the subject heading and state how many minutes you wrote in the beginning of the post.
4. Allow comments or not, as you wish.
Rules:
1. Respect and Kindness are the rule not an option.
2. The only editing allowed is for spelling and typos. Leave the content alone! Trust me, it's brilliant.
