Writing help

  • A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Remember that it is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link

  • Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.

  • A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link

  • I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english

Swimming is something that I have always liked since I was a child, and I remember a moment from my childhood, in which we had swimming classes and they took us to a pool that was in a very exclusive class of the country club, but in those days I did not I took none of that into account, I didn't care. The fact is that I remember that the pool had a very pleasant atmosphere and the teacher, of whom I only have a very blurry image, asked me: can you swim? pool.

I remember precisely how it took me a lot of work to get from one extreme to the other, because I have always been obese, and I made a great effort to achieve it, but this was something that I really liked and enjoyed it a lot.

Curiously, I want to mention that I don't remember the faces of my swimming companions, I only have in my memory an image of the whole group as children who went swimming, how curious is the mind.

And with this proposal for today's topic, these moments came to mind, and melancholy visits me.

These are my 5 minutes of freewriting for today.
