I surprisingly really enjoyed doing this free write. Normally I don’t take things like this very seriously and kind of brush them off when writing a paper but I think it would help me. My goal for writing my paper is to do a ton of research before siting down to write it. Once I have done a lot of research I want to sit down and do a free write. This will allow me to get out all of the information that I have so far for this topic. I also will be able to look at the statements I make and develop a plan for how I want to construct my paper. This exercise will help me to hopefully avoid the common writer’s block and come up with a successful and well-written paper.
