RE: Day 25: 5 Minute Freewrite - Prompt: bubbling
You can leave it as a comment if you don't want to make a post. The idea of the freewrite is that you just write - no thinking. Just follow what your fingers are typing out. Even if it is : "I can't think of anything, I can't think of anything.... then something will pop up. And certainly no editing during that time. This allows the inner critic to quiet down and creativity to flow.
Somedays, not much will pop up - and on other days - you suddenly have the beginning of a story or an article right there.
Ooh!!.... can't do without editing a bit because I'm the type who rewrites each sentence at least three times, But thanks... maybe I'll put everything from my mind next time no matter how little since it makes as written words.
There you go. That 's the spirit. You can always edit later. The whole point is to let that critic be quiet for a while and not worry about spelling and all of that. That is for later after the thoughts were allowed to flow freely :)
