Note

I will be separating Free writing from Automatic writing and creating a separate article. Address any comments to my desk. Alphabeter 00:15 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Its done. Different concepts (even there is so much confusion in general view). Wikidās ॐ 16:44, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I propose that Freeblogging be merged into Free writing. I think that the content in the Freeblogging article can easily be explained in the context of Free writing, and the Free writing article is of a reasonable size in which the merging of Freeblogging will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. 82.215.38.246 (talk) 11:32, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I see no point in maintaining these as separate articles. ThreeOfCups (talk) 20:28, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree. It looks like this page was made with the intent of advertising that questionable looking website in the external links section. Wethilio (talk) 00:41, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

External Links

The second link in the prior revision (to reverseverse.com) was dead. Linked to an article on using freewriting to draft a novel instead. Jordan ^{Talk to}^me 11:15, 25 November 2015 (UTC+2)

Hi people! There’s a cool freewriting tool free-write-prompts.com, I’ve added it, but some guy keeps deleting it. Also I think there used to be some more useful liknks on the page, like 750words etc., and they are gone also (perhaps deleted by same person?). Maybe there’s someone here with authority to take a look at this. Thanks! sirartemcamelot
