RE: Day 25: 5 Minute Freewrite - Prompt: bubbling
Thank you for organising this challenge. Here is my freewrite for day 25:
"I ran downstairs, thinking, 'Oh no, oh no, oh no.' I felt panic-stricken. How could I have overslept? So many people were relying on me to serve up some delish nosh!
The pots were soon bubbling away and aromas of tempting tastes were floating around the house.
All too soon, there was a knock at the door.
I rushed to open it without even tidying my hair."

Sorry I haven't written much. I am very slow at typing :(
I made a small donation. Will try to give more later in the week but my posts rarely are read by anyone, far less upvoted.
Lol. This is my problem too. I just can't type quickly enough.
I only have one working hand so I'm very slow lol
It's not the quantity but the quality...well written @deemarshall ! :-)
Thank you for encouraging words :)
So, I have been wanting to write about it in a prompt and I will soon. But how about you use a dictation device and speak your freewrite? Then you just clean up the "misunderstandings" and you can do that with one hand.
Thank you for the suggestion. I don't want to do that. The use it or lose it means I must exercise my remaining hand.
that makes sense. Then you claim 10 minutes for your 5 minute freewrite - sine the rest gets to use 2 hands :) But what you wrote above was so great - no need to change anything!!
Hehe, woop, that's a great idea, thank you! Okay, I'll continue with freewrite after that encouragement.
I do my freewrites the old- fashioned way - by hand in a notebook. It then takes me about 10 minutes to type them in. I can't type.
Thank you so much!! But no pressure. Some of us have nothing yes, and others have more. It's all good. And in the end, we are doing this to write more, to have fun together and not so much to make money, right? that is a welcome byproduct.
I just wrote that because I thought others might donate if they see someone has. True about the money! I found the best thing to do is forget all about it then, suddenly, you have some to power up :)
And today's 10 min freewrite :) https://steemit.com/freewrite/@mariannewest/day-26-5-minute-freewrite-prompt-a-shoe
Your freewrites are perfectly fine and more technically honest than mine. I read the prompt, find a photo, then format my post, and THEN I type. That whole time, my brain is squirreling away. That is if I don't read the prompt and then get distracted by making dinner or doing the dishes or whatever.
Since we're all confessing...I usually think a little bit before writing. I like to come up with a theme at the very least.
Good idea. I was thinking that I'd like to do the freewrite spontaneously for this challenge. Then after about a week, go back to it and develop it into a very short story. That's what I'm going to try, time allowing.
