Writing is an active process that involves a repetitive cycle of thinking and revising
ideas, divided into different stages : prewriting, writing, revising and evaluating.
Reading is also vital as it is inseparable from writing. The more you read, the more ideas
you can generate for writing.
Using metacognitive reading strategies before, during and after reading is a prerequisite skill.
Prewriting is the most important stage to break the writer’s block. This is where a writer
is able to generate ideas and concepts in mind and arranging them in a logical manner.
WRITER’S BLOCK- getting stuck with a topic or getting lost for right words to write
Prewriting Strategies
1. BRAINSTORMING
Mulling over of ideas by one or more individuals in an attempt to devise or find a solution
2. Clustering or mapping is the use of lines and circles to show visually how your ideas
relate to one another and to the main subject.
3. Listing of words or sentences helps emphasize and highlight important points or to
enumerate sequential items.
4. Freewriting Writing strategy in which a person writes quickly and continuously, with a
free association of ideas and worrying about rhetorical concerns.
5. Looping is a continuation of freewriting and involves taking a sentence or idea and using
that as a basis for additional freewriting.
