Writing under time pressure

Split the time so planning and checking both actually happen.

For a thirty minute writing task, spend five minutes planning, twenty two writing and three checking. The check is for full stops, capital letters and any sentence that does not make sense when read aloud in your head. A planned piece with a clear ending scores better than a longer piece that stops mid-scene.
