The next step is to quick write with your story in mind. Don't worry about creating beautifully written sentences - there will be time for that later. Your goal is to create as much content and essay material as possible.
Don't go back and read what you wrote. Just keep writing and move forward.
Use all of your senses to accurately capture the details of your story.
There will be time to compose beautiful sentences later. Just focus on getting as many details down as possible.
This is a judgement-free zone. Unlike school where your teacher evaluates and judges your writing, I am not going to judge what you have written. And neither should you.
Brainstorming is all about letting the ideas flow out of you - without judgement! This exercise is about generating material for a strong essay.
