One of my favorite college classes was Business Writing. While it was a morning class (night owl here), we were so productive in that hour and fifteen minute time frame. Why? Free writes.
Each class, we’d arrive and sit down at a computer. The professor (who was another reason that class was so productive) would give us a topic, seemingly at random. We’d have 15 minutes to write on that topic, whether it be our desired superpower or a special memory from our childhood. No matter the topic, the free writes produced the desired results — getting our creative juices flowing.
Let’s be honest. College students aren’t known for being morning people and may party more than most. But the simple act of free writing helped us wake up, start thinking and made the rest of the class more productive.
Do you free write?
Sometimes I’ll look back through my college papers, and I always enjoy re-reading the free writes from this class. I’m going to begin incorporating these back into my routine to help break through writer’s block and get my mind going when it’s just one of those days.
Here’s your free write topic: What superpower would you choose? Why? Drop your thoughts in the comments below!

Hi Jaime, What a terrific idea! To answer your question, I’ll be very brief. I wish I has the power to give an extra-large dose of empathy to every person on the planet. This would go a long way to bring about a more peaceful world, full of happy, healthy people.
Cheers,
Carol
