James Moffet " Active Voice "

Dear Denise,

There is something that i would love to share with you that I learned in english class. I know you love to write and based on what I will tell you, you will fall in love with the information.
 Whenever I am in class and a professor would ask the class to do a free write  that gives us the students time to actually jot down everything at comes up in our minds. Whenever we do a free write we arent thinking about our spelling  or any type of errors. Our minds is just rushing with so many ideas that need to be jotted down on paper. Whenever I see you writing your hand is non-stop moving. I learned that our minds have an "on-going consciousness" as James Moffeet explains. James Moffeet is always emphasizing ideas for classroom practice such  as free writing. Every second of the day our minds are thinking about everything that goes on around us. Our mind is a stream of thought that never really goes away. Both talking and writing may be usually a revision of our inner speech. Meaning our inner speech is us talking to yourself and orangizing your thoughts. Based on when you free write you are able to realize  how much you can write based on your thoughts in your head. Lets say you have to write a paper, if you just freewrite about what you know about that topic you pretty much you get a paper fulled up with ideas. Our minds carry millions of thoughts everyday. Free writing does the body good and its a good exercise for the brain. From the activiy "stream of consciousness" Moffeet explains how we have to write for 15mins anything that comes in mind. I think that this excerise really helps our mind work really well. Free writing tells you what you know.  Writing down what you know  free write may be  helping you sort out your thoughts and tell you what you know, and what you need to know in order to move forward in the next step of your paper. Another thing about this activity that I realize that it does is that  Free writing gets your ideas  going and gets the writing  process to fllow along. As your free writing your mind is getting all these ideas out. It really helps you as a writer. I think free writing is a great tool to use in our  daily use. I hope you enjoy the information that I shared with you and I hope you continue to write!

Your friend,
