Writing freely

Some of the best times I've ever had writing were when I didn't do a lot of outlining or planning and just sat and wrote as though I was listening to a main character tell me what happened. It might not make a great American novel, but it's fun and it keeps the creative juices flowing when not working on some major work-in-progress. And it's nice to have a place to get out some angst and have fun trying some scenes that might never make it into an actual novel or short story.
