Here's why:
* Prewriting is the initial stage of the writing process where you generate ideas, explore topics, and organize your thoughts.
* Brainstorming is a prewriting technique used to generate ideas.
* Outline is a prewriting tool that helps you organize your ideas into a structured framework.
* Freewriting is a prewriting activity where you write continuously without stopping to edit or censor yourself.
A rough draft comes *after* prewriting. It's the first complete version of your writing, where you put your ideas into sentences and paragraphs.
