Q For this unit's Writer's Journal entry, please practice the freewriting and looping process strategy described in the "Writing Processes" mini-lecture. You may type or hand-write this assignment. Keep in mind that if you choose to hand-write, you will need to scan or photograph your handwritten notes, so that you can turn in a file and receive credit for this assignment. Instructions First, write (typed or handwritten) for 5-8 minutes on the following prompt. I'll never forget the time I learned about ________. Keep your pen moving or your fingers typing -- try not to stop for the entire time. We will call this your freewrite. Then, read back through your freewrite. Circle, underline, or highlight any important words, ideas, or phrases you might be able to explore further. Finally, do another 5-8 minute freewrite, in which you use your circled/underlined/highlighted words as your prompt. Try to dig more deeply into these ideas in your first loop. Now, create another loop. Read through your first loop and circle, underline, or highlight any important words, ideas, or phrases. Write another 5-8 minute freewrite, in which you use these phrases as your prompt. When you are finished with your freewrite and two loops, please upload them to this assignment, either as a typed document file (.doc, .docx, or .pdf) or a visual file (.jpg, .gif, or .pdf). Use this unit's Writer's Journal as a basis for beginning your major writing assignment for this unit.

I’ll never forget the time I drove my mom’s car for the first time. I was probably 14 and I was preparing for my driving learner’s permit. My mom told me I could drive up the street from my house on the way home from lunch one Saturday. I was doing fine, this is a country road so the speed limit is 55mph, but I couldn’t get comfortable behind the wheel unless I was doing 62. The speed and my driving combined was making my mom nervous! She told me to slow down as I was approaching the curb just before my driveway. Once I made it past the curb, I was about to turn in the driveway which is slightly crooked. I went a little too far past the turn and was headed for the ditch, my mom told me to stop and put the car in park. She got out and pulled the car in the driveway, while informing me that I would be learning to drive with a driver ed teacher lol.
