Free Writing
1.
The difference between free writing and editing
is what your focusing is on. When you free write the focus is on purely the
writing, just the words you enter on the paper. Editing makes your thoughts
shift to “are you writing correctly” instead of simply writing. As you free
write your mind has to be clear of those self-doubts. Editing may make your
finished writing more clear but free writing is meant to let your imagination
flow.
2.
This means that once your mind is focusing on
editing, not just writing, it will make your final creation less creative and
more dull or dead.
3.
That means when you try to get the beginning
right, you start to become an editor not a writer right at the start. That
means you must allow your ideas presented as you think of them, or you run the
risk of censoring great writing.
