On top of the fact that you are having a pile of assignments which deadlines are looming, you have to write an article as soon as possible. For an article of 400 words you will need 45 minutes to an hour at least, including the time for research and editing. Now the question is how to find the time to write that article.

One very popular technique is free writing which is also called stream of consciousness technique. You get the title and you write continuously without a pause everything that comes up on your mind on the subject for 15 minutes.

Then, you do the editing if what you have written and the task is completed. However, not everyone can speed up their writing by this activity. What if we tell you that there is a new way out and that a 400-word article can be completed in 20 minutes. You want to know how? Read further.

Begin with making the list where you write down the ideas and keep that list near you until the end of your writing. Pick the ideas worth writing in your article the most and elaborate on them. If you are typing the article on your computer, type the ideas you want to elaborate on the most in the browser and use the database and write down almost simultaneously. This can be made possible if you keep on writing as long as you have the ideas flowing and when the ideas stop, take a glance at the internet source and move on. You do not have to read the entire database unit, only 3 sentences will help you make an entire paragraph. Do not waste your time reading data you already know. Seek the yet unfamiliar pieces of information through the text and use them wisely.

Of course you should take some things in consideration before trying this out. First and foremost, we are talking about article writers who write in their mother tongue; if you are not a native speaker of the language you are writing the article in, this will take you a long way. Finally, this is possible if you are familiar with the subject writing about, yet you are missing some facts; if you write about a phenomenon you know nothing about, you better spend an hour in research and then practice this quick-writing technique.
