Explanation:
Free writing represents the free presentation of thoughts and ideas within a text. In this case, an author has the complete ability to gather thoughts, transform them into words and put them on paper without worrying about revising or editing what was written because his thoughts are being expressed freely and outside standards of language and grammar. In this way, we can agree with Elbow's statement, because free writing is an exercise in bringing together the process of producing words and putting them on the page.
