I appreciate this well-written article and the structure you’ve provided!

To me, the one good thing about “stream of consciousness” writing is the organic creation process (when it happens) that I always try to ride to the end so I can squeeze out all the potentially awesome ideas. I write an initial thought, but once I’m “in the zone” I just can’t stop because that original idea leads to another, and another, and….

But as you say, this organic style usually ends up looking like an unassembled puzzle right out of the box. And your scaffold description makes too much sense to ignore, so I’ll be trying it very soon!

Thanks, Zulie!
