Verb form 10 – GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE WRITING – Incubation is perhaps an unconventional term to describe the process of mulling over ideas withoutactually writing anything down. It’s the back-burner thinking that often takes place even without your fullawareness. For example, you might have read an essay assignment and set it aside to complete later. While youwere out running errands, doing the dishes, or waiting for the train, you suddenly came up with ideas for youressay because part of your brain had been thinking about this topic. Unfortunately, on the AWA, you do not have the time to incubate. As soon as you get your prompt, youwill have to start brainstorming ideas. Brainstorming refers to the process of coming up with ideas, such as support for an essay, solutions toa problem, or gifts for a birthday. The key to a successful brainstorm is to be open to all ideas. At this impor-tant stage, don’t censor yourself. Write down whatever comes to mind. The more freedom you give yourselfto think, the more ideas will come to you. The more ideas you get on paper, the more freedom you will haveto pick the best (strongest) support for your thesis. Several brainstorming techniques can help you generate ideas and examples to support your thesis,including freewriting, listing, and mapping. Freewriting is a technique that is useful any time you are having trouble coming up with ideas and isparticularly helpful if you are having trouble getting started. This brainstorming technique is exactly what itsays: free writing. Write down whatever comes to mind about the question or topic. Don’t worry about gram-mar or structure; write in your native language or your personal shorthand if you like. Just write. If you keepyour hands moving for even two or three minutes, you are bound to come up with some good ideas. Here’sa freewriting example for the Analysis of an Argument essay from the pretest: Location location location they say but that’s not the only thing that matters. I go out of my way to a place if it has food I like (ex, Carmello’s). Maybe there are other factors keeping customers away (food, cost, service, atmosphere, other competition) maybe they just need to be more aggres- sive in getting customers to their door. Maybe too pricey for mediocre food, so moving won’t mat- ter. Moving — expenses — especially for closing down during the move. Listing is probably the most common brainstorming technique and particularly useful if you are a lin-ear thinker. Simply list on a piece of paper (or on the computer screen) all of the ideas that come to mind inrelation to your topic. Here’s how the writer of the Analysis of an Argument essay used listing to brainstormideas: New location: near hub convenience near stores people eat after shopping higher rent maybe more competition moving costs 233 – GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE WRITING – Old location: other factors? food service price atmosphere survey customers restaurant reviews ads Mapping enables you to make connections among ideas as you brainstorm. For visual learners, this isoften the most effective brainstorming technique because relationships among ideas are clear and serve as trig-gers for other ideas. Here’s how the same brainstorm might appear as a map: GOOD FOR SOCIETY = GOOD FOR BUSINESS!
