Experiment #1: Monday, April 10th

Introduction To The Spontaneous Monologue

For the next 15 minutes, write down everything that comes into your head, as fast as you can. Use the first words that come to mind, and do not worry about form, spelling, grammar, or correctness for now. Just try to get down as much of what goes through your head as possible.

There is no right or wrong way to do this. If you block, or if your mind goes blank, write about that until something else comes to mind. The purpose of the exercise is to tap your own mental stream and write down as much of it as you can. Go as fast as you can, and still keep it legible.

Reread the directions, and then immediately begin writing, doing the assignment as fast and as naturally as you can.
