Answer 1

There’s no doubt about it: writing is tough. It’s a craft built on deep thought and self-discovery, both of which are emotionally draining and time consuming.

few days ago I wrote a piece on why I think writers’ block is a myth, and how those that claim to be experiencing writers’ block are in fact just intimidated by the piece of paper in front of them. How they’re afraid of writing badly (which consequently stops those people from writing at all).

But writing is a learned skill, and like anything, learning requires patience and the ability to accept that you’re going to be bad at something, for a very long time.

When I started writing — now more than 5 years ago — I realised the best way to practice the craft was to free write, which is to say, I’d pick a subject or theme at random, consider the lede and go from there with no direction or end in sight.

Free writing is like getting into a car and just driving. There’s no destination to reach or goal to achieve, it’s all in the process, and process is everything.

Even bad writing is educational. It teaches you the art of patience and the act of thinking clearly and deeply. Free writing, then, is to the mind what yoga is to the body.

Here’s why you should do it, and regularly:

It helps you develop your abilities as a writer

It builds confidence

It drives inspiration

It helps excavate emotional themes and barriers

It promotes process and not outcome

It develops muscle memory and good habits

It helps you discover just how committed you are as a writer

It generates honesty in your writing

Hello Friend !

Here's your answer.
_______________________________

=> Good writing skills are not acquired over night. It takes years to practice to produce good writing.

[But how and where does one begin?]

=> The simplest and the best way to begin is to write for oneself. This is called 'Free Writing'.

=> When we write something unmindful of an audience or reader that is called Free Writing.

=> When we write for ourself we do not need to bother about spelling, grammar, neatness or correctness, so long as it makes sense to us. When wewrite for ourselves we write without any constraints.

=> The advantages of free writing are many :-

• It helps us to clarify our thoughts and feelings.

• We become more open and honest.

• It helps us to write without fear of being criticised.

• Free writing can help us to understand our thoughts which form the base of original thoughts.

=> We must remember that we can develop good writing skills only after years of practice. Free writing is perhaps the best way to begin that process.

=> To complement our efforts at writing, we must also develop a reading habit. Reading newspaper, magazines or any other kind of writing will help us to develop many of the skills required for good writing.
