Is it easy to be a writer?

Same like you, my mother tongue language is not English. But, i everyday practice to read and write in English, so day by day, i felt my English had improved a lot. I think the more you can spend time to practice your writing, the more you are able to write good English. Besides that, if you have a lot of free time, you can go for some short English language course, to gain more knowledge of English language, so that you are able to write good English blog. So, hope you wish will become true soon.

The only thing I can think of is to let your friends whose first language is English critique your writing and then you must be willing to give consideration to their criticisms and suggestions.

You can always search about how to be good in writing. There are a lot of helpful materials out there: you can read books, search the Web, or ask help from people you know are great writers. Information is everywhere. And one thing, read a LOT. It really helps.

Well, English being your first language is one thing, but have it being your second language, I don't think so!

If you were a good writer in your mother tongue you will get there, because you have capabilities/good foundation, makes it easier when you are learning a second language. I have a friend that her teacher told her that and learning to write in the English language was very easy for her.

Constant practice is the key. Read articles and books to enhance knowledge and learnings. Writing is simply sharing to the readers what you know and how you feel. Be like the Energizer bunny "Just keep going, and going, and going ........"

You could read blog relevant to grammar. My favorite is Grammar Girl who blogs at quickanddirtytips.com. Grammar Girl has a way to simplify things and you would love her mnemonic--a trick to remember grammar rules which I, myself, often forgets. Don't forget to subscribe to her newsletter for a concise tips right at your inbox. To practice your English skills, try to make comments every now and then. Don't be afraid, especially if you want to ask something. I hope you'll be able to start you're blog sooner and improve your English skills each day.

Is it easy to be a writer? Sure! Is it easy to make money off of writing? No. Most writers don't make much, even if they are officially published. I think the easiest way to improve your writing is by reading and writing more. You get better with time and practice, and reading helps you to see how others write and what may work in your writing. You can also find another wannabe writer and spend some time critiquing each other's work each week.

Since English is not your mother tongue, it is best that you let someone check your writing. Make sure that someone must has mastery of the English language. The important thing is that you use your grammar correctly and also should spell words correctly otherwise it will mean another thing. Please don't get me wrong but your "sort" should be spelled "short". Please check meaning of the words in your English dictionary. Hope this helps and goodluck on your chosen new career.

No, it's not easy. Persistence will pay-off, emine. Pragmatism, you should avoid that. That's not good for you. So sorry, you can't be a good writer in short time. You should do many things. You have to improve your English, either through reading and writing. Improve your grammar, also. The other thing is you need to learn something like literature and philosophy. And I think you need to I'm sure you'll be just fine if you understand and comprehend literature and philosophy.

yeah well it's not easy to write, but if you love what you do, inspiration'll come easy. my mother language is not english to, but practice makes better. ;) reading a lot of books help big time. and writing about your thoughts in english do too. so there. :)

Hi, I sympathize with you but admire your enthusiasm. There's no short cut to being a writer, you have to do overtime. I'm a teacher in English and teaches writing also, my assessment for you is you have great promise. Start reading about techniques on writing,memorize new words everyday, do research in the internet, libraries etc. Always have a small notebook handy where to write your ideas everytime you have one anywhere you are. As a starter, select a style for your blog. I hope I helped you in someway. Good luck! Happy writing. Your Mylot friend, Ruby Cajigal

of course you can be. just write what you are thinking and what happens around you everyday. you will find yourself increasing a lot.
