For this exercise you will need a timer, pen and paper.  If possible set aside fifteen minutes.  Do not read the prompt questions ahead of time. Be ready to write responses without thinking or STOPPING. See if you can write for two minutes non-stop. Just let the pen keep moving-even if it seems like non-sense or you can’t read your own writing.

There are no right or wrong answers!
