freewriter
Unfiltered prose creator
A freewriter is someone who practices freewriting—the technique of writing continuously without stopping to edit, censor, or plan.
The method aims to bypass the inner critic and access raw thoughts: As a freewriter, she fills three pages every morning before coffee.
The term sometimes describes writers who work without outlines or rigid structure.
