Freewriting

October 5, 2017 By Nancy Casey

Freewriting is when you write whatever comes out of your pen without planning or paying attention to what you are "saying."  You can freewrite by writing single words, one after another.  You can also write phrases or sentences.  Or some mixed up combination of everything.

 

Freewriting wakes up your mind and gets you going whether you are feeling like you have something to say or not.

 

Sometimes freewriting leads you to wonderful writing ideas that you wouldn't have thought of otherwise.  Sometimes it doesn't. Freewriting is free of everything, including expectations.

 

Ready, set, go.  Fill a page with freewriting.

 

Here is a longer version of these directions.

News and Events

Nancy blogs weekly for the Latah Recovery Community Center, sharing writing ideas that support self-awareness and self-esteem.


 

Writing classes and workshops

I had been looking forward to the 2020 summer season of in-person  Write-For-You workshops at the Latah Recovery Community Center.  Alas.

 

Congratulations to last summer’s students who earned certificates in Fiction Writing, Project Management and Grant Writing.

 

Applause and thanks to those who dropped by the classes just for fun.

 

If you are in recovery and interesting in writing coaching, contact Nancy.


 

Let’s Talk About It

A program that supports reading and discussion in libraries throughout the state of Idaho. Free and open to all. Somehow? Again? At a later date?

 

We are all looking forward to the time when it will be possible to resume these lively book discussions.

 

I’ve served as a scholar for this program for I-don’t-know-how-many years. I have found every book, every library, every group of people to be interesting and stimulating. Every discussion brings new ideas and surprises.

 

I’m confident that this program will evolve so that it can continue to bring Idahoans together through books. We just don’t know how or when that will happen.  Yet.
