Today, I had to do lots and lots of timed freewriting. We were given several statements and were to set a ten minute timer and write what we believed about each statement. Then, we were to reset the time and write what we doubted about each statement. Do you know what I discovered? I really suck at freewriting.
The assignment was designed less to see what you would say and more to make you keep writing, even when you felt like you had nothing left to say. You should see some of the things I wrote... They were ugly. Disorganized, messy, all over the place, only halfway logical and barely understandable. I read some other people's posts and they followed a logical train of thought and were decently organized... It drove me nuts!
Now I have to write this blog post to prove to myself that I don't always write like I did in those freewrites. And now I've proven that, so I'm going to bed. Goodnight.
