Now to this week’s exercise. It’s a form of freewriting with a little more structure. Freewriting is basically the idea that you set yourself a time limit and write continuously until the time is up. That means keeping the pen moving the whole time, no going back and rereading, no editing – nothing. With practice, it’s a great way to avoid self-censoring and apathy. It’s great for those moments of ‘God I have nothing to write about.’ and those of ‘Everything I write is utter crap.’
