Prompt:best start

  • Set your timer for 5 minutes
  • Start writing
  • Use the hashtag #freewrite
  • Publish your piece (include a link to this post if you wish)

Copy and paste your URL into the comment section of the prompt post.

  • Or, if you don't want to publish your freewrite, just copy and paste as a comment under the prompt post.

@sydroc started to use the prompt as an inspiration for a drawing. You all are invited to do the same.

Since our Freewrite community is growing, we decided to revive our Freewrite Discord for Freewriters to hang out, talk to each other, and have some fun. I am offering the Freewrite Prompt on several platforms - not everyone is going to be on Hive.
Here is your invite

Writing help

  • A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Just remember that is is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link

  • Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.

  • A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link

  • I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english

I have a favor to ask. If you are on YouTube, can you please subscribe to my Sustainable Living Podcast channel. I am not asking you to watch, just to subscribe. I want to be able to do live Yoga classes and need more subscribers before I can access that function. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA73SuaMBnBIaB5OdiL_y6Q

Thank you. I have been basically absent from here - besides posting the prompts and upvoting the participants. Now, I have to figure out how to sell them :)

I am still an idiot. Can I just transfer it to you? I tried the market but apparently, I didn't put my active key into keychain and I forgot how to access the keychain settings.
That is what happens when you step away from the online world for a long time :(

But how can you transfer without your keys?
Keychain can just be reset from scratch - settings are in Manage Accounts :-)

Well, I did transfer them to you. I have my keys - but can't figure out how to access the keychain extension to add my active key to it. Maybe I have to delete what I have and redownload the extension... and on the marketplace it doesn't give me an option to use my keys...

Oh Marianne - you too?? Losing those keys...
Somehow, my passwords get CHANGED, I swear, because I saved them all in Chrome but suddenly they're allegedly incorrect.
Good Luck Marianne and may all these irritants and setbacks in our "retirement" years be sorted out.....!!!!

Also, everyone now posts in PeakD or ecency, sites I cannot access (due to my passwords allegedly being incorrect) - same with Blurt - it got to be so frustrating, I just shut down instead of seeking some Higher Being who might help.....

Now it appears I'm the only one here still posting Hive links!

It goes without saying: you are NOT an idiot Marianne!! You are one of the smartest, most competent, resourceful, and enterprising people I know, a leader, an inspiration, a community builder. Losing Bruni @wonderwop was tough!!! The soul of kindness AND of techno-competence....
