Embrace Freewriting and Discover Your Unique Voice

Every Friday is an opportunity to unleash your creativity through freewriting. For five uninterrupted minutes, write anything that comes to your mind; don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or structure. This exercise is for you alone, intended to get you into the flow of writing. Afterward, review your freewrite to find key phrases or ideas worth exploring further. Additionally, share a thought with a peer to foster connection. Engage with prompts to reflect on different types of friends and the qualities that make them unique. Let your words flow!

  3. For five minutes, write non-stop: don't lift your pencil from the page. Just keep writing. Don't stop to ponder or make corrections or look up a word's meaning in the dictionary. Just keep writing. While you are freewriting, forget the rules of formal English. Because you are writing only for yourself at this point, you don't have to worry about sentence structures, spelling or punctuation, organization , or clear connections. (All those things will come later.)

  4. The results may not look pretty, but you will have started writing! FREEWRITE for five minutes.

  5. What should you do with your freewriting? Well, eventually you will delete it or toss it away.

Freewriting may not always give you specific material for a future essay, but it will help you get into the right frame of mind for writing.
