So I want to do a mini rant. Scroll on past if you dont care, I dont mind XD Anyways, I read, I think by Stephen King, that writing is something that you must have naturally. It isnt something that you can just learn to be good at. I have to respectfully disagree with the renown writer. I think to be a successful writer you MUST be good at making up stories. It is all about the story. If the writing is bad but the story is good then you can fix that. Fix it with practice. Read, improve your vocabulary, and look at the famous writers. See what they do. Dont copy them, but take inspiration from them. You like a story? Take that story and make it your own. Change it enough to where it isnt theirs anymore and of course write write write and edit edit edit. Get that story down and write it no matter how terrible it sounds. It can only get better, not worse. :)
