From this reading I learned about
the powers of writing. Writing can help you in the creative process, from
mind-mapping to writing out ideas. Mind mapping has been used by Da Vinci,
Picasso, Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein and many more. Mind maps can help you
see patterns emerge and concepts that might need to be remapped. Concept maps
are similar and help you make a more thorough analysis of “conceptual
relationships and meanings” and help with “cognitive organization” by showing
the relationships of concepts from general to specific and help greatly as a
jumping-off point for future writing. Freewriting focuses on a specific idea and helps
put thoughts and ideas down, it is similar to journaling, and helps stimulate
more productive thinking and writing. Brainwriting is essentially
brainstorming, it helps you get many ideas out and on paper. This especially
helps people who would rather write ideas down than present them in front of a
group with speech. Word lists help us with idea generation and give us a sense
of accomplishment. Writing also helps in the next phase after creative in
communicating the idea, which leads to public writing on “proposals, project
briefs, cover letters and even blog entries”.
