How to improve Writing Skills?

There should be many books in your local library on creative writing. Also, buy a Thesaurus. Roget's Thesaurus, I believe, is the preferred version. And, if you don't have one, an English dictionary is very valuable. Reading in mylot is also helpful. Or, at the library, pick up some interesting short stories by American writers. This should give you a feel for the language. I have a book titled "If You Can Talk You Can Write" by Joel Saltzman. You can buy it online or maybe the library has a copy. I found it to be very inspirational. And the advice many successful writers give is to put down your thoughts. Don't try to edit it right away. Just write everything down as you think of it. Then, later go back and read and rewrite it. But don't try to rewrite it all at once. Take breaks in between, maybe even a day or two. And lastly I think this link will be helpful to you: www.dailywritingtips.com/creative-writing-101/ Good luck in fulfilling your dream. And read everything you can. Here is a quote from Jane Evershed, author: "To read is to empower To empower is to write, To write is to influence, To influence is to change, To change is to live." Hope I have helped you a little.

As someone who is a native English speaker and writer, I would recommend classes. Perhaps you have a college that you can attend. If the English language is something you would like to learn better, maybe you can start with an "English as a second language class". After you have mastered the English language satisfactorily, you can move on to reading and writing. To help you better understand vocabulary, a dictionary is a must. It is also important to practice how to structure a sentence, learn about punctuation, develop reading comprehension, and construct a paragraph. This is done at the grade school and secondary school levels, but you can possibly find a class that allows you to do all of this at your stage in life. A class such as "English 101" will give you lessons on how to further construct paragraphs, and use punctuation marks to further your writing ability. I do not fully know the command you have of the English language, but your discussion shows that you are coming along. I hope this helps.

First of all you must read to have a good knowledge and fluency in English language. You can read books, magazines and newspapers. For creativity you must have a creative mind or you can write about your own experiences to start. Write something everyday to improve your writing.

with reference to your main topic discussion, it is good to hear that you are looking forward to another way on how to earn. aside from that, you are also expanding your horizon since you want to explore your writing capabilities. well having the right direction plus dwelling on the site where you can earn and learn, for sure, you will do it great.
