In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The first step to virtually any kind of writing is to know your audience. The audience of your creative writing can determine the topic that you choose to write about. Ask yourself what your audience would be interested in reading. Think about what may surprise or shock your audience. If you are unsure about your actual audience, create a fictional reader in your mind. You could even give your fictional reader a name. Writing about what is interesting to you will help your writing flow more easily, help you generate fresh content, and lead to a better final product. It matters less what you freewrite about than that you do it. Pick a situation that seems interesting to you: perhaps a person is lost in the desert, or perhaps they are waiting to find out if they have an illness, or perhaps they are trying to decide whether to tell someone they are in love. Then, freewrite based on that situation, thinking about what might happen, what they might be thinking, conversations they might have, etc. Write nonstop for a predetermined amount of time (most people do 10-15 minutes.) Do not stop writing, even if you need to just write "blah blah blah" in the middle of a sentence. Hopefully, you will write yourself towards a useful thought or idea through freewriting. Even if it does not give you content you can use in your creative writing, it can be a valuable warm-up. There are whole books of writing prompt ideas for creative writing, and several websites that contain lists of prompts. Treat the prompt as a beginning point but don't be afraid to leave the topic of the prompt. Check your library for a book of prompts so that you don't have to buy one. Keep a list of ideas of things to write about on you all the time. If you think of an idea, write it down. Go to your working list any time you feel like you need help coming up with a topic. Your environment contains a rich array of items that can serve as writing prompts, so just look around and write about something that you see. Close your eyes, then open them and write about the first thing you see, regardless of what it is. Look at the color of something nearby, and write a list of other things that are the same color until you feel inspired. Look at an item near you and try to remember the last time you saw a similar item. Who were you with? What were you doing? Then write a story, real or fictional, about that memory. Find a unique item in your line of sight, then imagine that you are seeing it for the first time. Write about someone from a different culture seeing the item for the first time out of context and speculating about what it is used for.
Summary: Identify your audience. Know what interests you. Freewrite about something. Consult a list of writing prompts. Keep an idea list. Look around you.

Start with damp hair that you've worked a little water-based setting lotion through. Plan to braid your locks in the evening, as you'll be sleeping on your braids to create curls. Try this method if your locks are too short for rollers. They'll still need to be at least three inches long to hold the braid. Reach behind your head and divide your locks in half. Pull each side forward onto your shoulders, so all of your hair is in front of your shoulders and none is behind. Divide each of these sections into 2, using your ear as a dividing line. Secure the 4 new sections with hair ties. Separating your hair evenly will ensure that your curls are evenly distributed over your whole head. . Remove the hair tie from one of the back quadrants of your hair. Take 3 of the locks in your fingers and braid them together. Braid tightly enough that there is some tension, but not so tightly that the braid hurts your scalp. Secure the braid with a hair tie at the bottom so it doesn't come undone. Braid the rest of the locks in that quadrant, and then repeat the process, braiding the locks in each of the other quadrants. It doesn't matter what order you do the quadrants in. Go to bed as normal. Your hair will air dry overnight. Covering your hair will keep your braids from getting frizzy while you toss and turn. Feel your hair to make sure it is dry to the touch in the morning. If it is, you can remove your braids. If not, let the braids sit for another hour or two more until your hair is completely dry. Undoing your braids while your hair is still damp will cause your curl to fall. Starting from the back, remove the hair tie from a braid, and gently undo your braid to reveal your curled dreads. Repeat the process with the rest of the braids. Gently run your fingers through your dreads to separate the curls. Style your curls and go!

Problem: Article: Parental controls generally leave sites like Google and Bing accessible. Virtual Private Network (VPN) software is designed to mask your computer's location and can help you bypass parental controls. VPNs are commonly used for those who wish to browse the web more securely or privately. There are many free VPNs each with their advantages and disadvantages. Some free VPNs include the following: Hotspot Shield includes both free and a paid premium subscription. It's easy to use and has a data allowance of 500 MB per day. The only downside is you must provide a credit card and sign up for a free trial of the premium version, even if you plan on using the free model. Tunnelbear is another easy to use VPN that is owned by McAfee. The downside to the free version is that it only offers a paltry 500 MB per month. Proton VPN has a free option that includes unlimited data per month, but only allows you to connect one device. You can sign up only using an email address and it does not log the websites your visit. It is also one of the few free VPNs that have no ads on the client. Hide.Me has a free option that includes a 2 GB per month data limit and only allows you to connect one device. However, it does not keep website logs or user data. It also has no ads. Once you find VPN software that is suitable for your needs, download the VPN client and install it. Read the terms and conditions for any VPN software you download. Some free VPN clients contain malware, intrusive ads, and may track you on the internet. As a general rule, only download files from reputable, first-party sites. Third-party downloads run the risk of infecting your computer. Most VPNs have an app that allows you to activate the VPN. This will start routing all your internet traffic through another location. Open a browser and try typing in a previously-blocked site. You should now be able to bypass the parental controls!
Summary:
Open a search engine of your choosing. Search free VPN software. Download VPN software. Activate your VPN. Confirm that you have unrestricted browsing.
