What is a freewrite?
It is grabbing a prompt, a thought, an idea. Hold on with both hands and visualize with a picture to match - then bungee jump!! For five minutes just watch on while the fingers come to life and decide what is to be said. Let images fly past, let ideas land on the paper. What you may have thought at the start is never really what you end up with.
At the end, you may take a minute (or two lol) to finish the sentence and check that disgusting spelling (there is some pride in me - that I should let go of!!)
The best freewrites are the ones where the writer truly lets go. There are no bars and no barriers - anything comes out. That is where a writer can truly tap into their inner creativity and discover the true potential!
It is so much more - an expression of self, an outlet for inner angst and stress, a communication board; it provides a means for others with the same desire, gift and ability to get together and appreciate each other's work. For that I am truly grateful!!

You are in the drawing. I love the bungee jump analogy!! Freewriting is like that lol. And it really allows us to deal with all those feeling lurking in the subconscious.
