Battle: Outline vs. Free-Writing



From "homestarrunner.com"



     Do you prefer to create an outline and fill in the blanks with your prose?  Do you love the freedom that free-writing affords?  “Do you has five bucks?”

I AM (The Documentary) - Movie Review

Just a quick update.  I posted a review of the documentary I AM on a friend's blog. 

Monthly Writing Prompt and Drafting
