In the past, I banned a lot of them since the community was designed to be a place for freewriters who use the prompt for their writing to meet and to support each other. I don't mind so much when others join in, but sadly, there are many on Steem who are spammers and plagiarists. I don't have the time to check on everyone. Instead, I am going to add a list to the prompt of true freewriters. I will update the list as I see more names. To make it easy on me, leave a link with your freewrite in the comments of this post - if it truly is a freewrite... @bold-n-italics, @wonderwop, @uthus2k, @owasco, @freedomtowrite, @thegreatdayne, @wakeupkitty, @isgledysduarte, @freedompoint, @toufiq777,@victoriaxl, @estoesundiario, @fendit, @cliffagreen, @sarix Please support the true freewriters with your comments and upvotes. Originally, I was going to drop posting the prompt to Steem after Day 1000. But we still have a nice little group of writers here. So, I will keep posting and leave enough SP in my account that my vote makes a little bit of a difference. If any of the mentioned above are interested in moderating the community, let me know. ## Freewrite on! ![Freewrite.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQjoLWDPkqaxDDEDMCb1Nnm6b65TCtE4K88SXeFLLJevV/Freewrite.png) **The Freewrite House has moved mostly to Hive.

I just type "timer" into google and it pops up a 5-minute timer. I also type directly into steemit. I also rarely use a photo, don't I? So that's three things. #### Please read, comment and vote (if you have voting power) on each others freewrites as much as you can. Especially if you are new to the platform, you will be surprised how many friendships are formed by reading and commenting on each other's work! ![Freewrite.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQjoLWDPkqaxDDEDMCb1Nnm6b65TCtE4K88SXeFLLJevV/Freewrite.png) ## 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. Just remember that is is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. [Here is the link](https://app.grammarly.com/) * Remember [The Most Dangerous Writing App](http://www.themostdangerouswritingapp.com/). 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](http://e.ggtimer.com/) * 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 * If you know of other helpful tools or people, please share with us! ![Freewrite.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQjoLWDPkqaxDDEDMCb1Nnm6b65TCtE4K88SXeFLLJevV/Freewrite.png) [![beta reg banner.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdRLXhhWAbGmJEXcQg38bcUXHb5WKmoD9TvD2EbN5Znow/beta%20reg%20banner.png)](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc2bG6YbLh_LCw-vjjUiv-jeLT9N46pMTps15Xw8Ea8qGCFVQ/viewform?usp=sf_link) ![Freewrite.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQjoLWDPkqaxDDEDMCb1Nnm6b65TCtE4K88SXeFLLJevV/Freewrite.png) ## Staying Legal This is an excellent article by @dmcamera on how to use images legally.
