Lesson 2: The Odd Couple: Right Brain/Left Brain Thinking

Creative Workout

1. Choose a subject and type its title at the top of your computer screen. Write whatever comes to mind during the next 10 minutes. Your goal is nonstop free association until the time is up. Don’t analyze or evaluate your writing until later.

2. Now evaluate what you have written.
