The more you read the better you write. I have not seen a single writer or blogger who wouldnt use reading  on a regular base. this is a key. 

What about me I mostly create scripts or plots. Earlier i used to practise my fiction skills by writting poems or little stories. 

But the clue is to read, read ,read. Different kinds of books to catch differnt kinds of ways and manners to express ur ideas in order to stay "readable" and attractive for ur audience.

Writing practice starts with reading through good written samples, noting the use of words, phrases and grammmar and then trying to rewrite the original in your ownn words. Paraphrasing always helps as wriiting practice.  Answering your emails, social media calls and regular post response are other forms of writing practice. One of the most important things in writing practice is to ensure,, again and again, that your grammar is correct, your writing is targeted and the message in your writing is clear, crisp and concise.

Keeping in mind the rules of grammar,  try to do free writing. Start writing daily on different topics. After a month you will develop a good flow of writing. Once you get the habit of writing, you will defnitely improve as a writer. At first it will be a hard task but gradually you will enjoy.

I read a lot whenever I can, wherever I can and write down whenever I feel like writing, when I feel the need to express myself.

I keep a journal and write my thoughts on it - daily.  And of course, I read a lot to enhance my writing style.

By reading. And learning. I began writing because I wanted to put my knowledge to use. I read a lot as a teenager. I read books and stories that were written centuries before my existence. I read books written in different eras, at different times. I kept a dictionary with me all the time that I read. I read not just for leisure, but to improve my language. In a given context, I understoond what an otherwise difficult word meant. But I looked it up in the dictionary anyway. Understood the explanation in there. Then, I wrote down the same difficult word on a piece of paper with it's definition, and, if possible, with an example sentence. At the end of a particular book, I had pages of over100 new words. I re-read those pages until the words sat in my vocabulary. But they were complex words; used only in prose and poetry. I couldn't talk to a friend or acquaintance using those words. And yet, I didn't want them to just stay in my vocabulary. So, I began writing. To put those difficult, complex, ancient and modern alike, words to use. My writing contained words that made the reader pick up a dictionary and locate them. And I had all those words in my mind.

The more I learn, the more I write. My technique to writing creatively is to learn plenty, and keep the imagination active. Talk less, think more. Fantasize more.

Creativity is a gift. Language is a skill. When they come together, the writer in you wakes.
