It's not English which is hindrance, writing stories and books need creative skills, read books, watch different stories based on your required genre , illustrate things in your mind , creative writing is untirely different, written skills are far more easier than speaking skills. Good luck 🤞🍀

You should read books as many as you can and focus on literary style. I will suggest you must read books of Jane Austen and Samiel Johnson who is known as 'man of word'. Their works will help when you're having your pen.

1. Develop a writer's mindset: Writing a book requires discipline, patience, and creativity. You need to be willing to put in the time and effort to write every day, even when you don't feel like it. 2. Create a writing space: Find a quiet place where you can write without distractions. This could be a home office, a coffee shop, or even a park bench. 3. Choose your writing software: There are many different writing software options available, such as Microsoft Word, Google Docs, Scrivener, and more. Choose one that works best for you. 4. Determine your book's topic: Decide what you want to write about and what message you want to convey to your readers. 5. Create an outline: An outline can help you organize your thoughts and ideas before you start writing your book. 6. Finish writing your manuscript: Once you have an outline, start writing your book. Don't worry about making it perfect the first time just get your ideas down the paper.
Hi!! Aside from actually practicing writing, you can read blogs. Blogs afford you the opportunity to discover different writing styles from many different writers because in any blog, the writer's personality will usually be reflected in their written work. Also, write something you are passionate about and have a friend or colleague read it and give you feedback. Years ago i had a friend who aspired to be a writer and i was that friend who would proofread her work and give her feedback. It was fun and she got much better in a shorter space of time! Your language tutor can provide you with sufficient feedback as well. Hope that helps!
By writing, writing writing. Your language tutor could help you with increasing vocabulary, correcting the flow of phrases etc. At the higher levels, "homework practice" isn't necessary. So your lessons could be based around reading and dissecting different stories and books to learn more about writing styles
- Read Widely (books, articles) Pay attention to different styles and techniques used by authors in different genres. Especially, in the way actors use different structures and develop their ideas. - Write Regularly (the more you write, the more you develop your style) - Expand your vocabulary (learn new words and use them effectively - Study Grammar and Pronunciation (polish your writing style) - Seek Feedback (share your writing with peers or mentors to identify areas of improvement) - Edit and Revise (look for areas where sentences can be tightened and ideas can be clarified) - Find your Voice (reflect your personality and perspective) - Study Storytelling techniques (Character development, Plot structure, Pacing, creating Tension and Resolution, etc.) - Read Aloud (identify awkward phrasing and other issues) - Be Patient (developing a learning style takes time. Don't be discouraged by challenges. Keep practicing and learning from experience)
Greetings! Read regularly - books/newspapers/articles expose you to different writing styles Expand vocabulary - learning new words and expressions is crucial for expressing ideas effectively Write regularly - set aside time each day to write something Seek feedback - it's better to share your stories with teachers/ friends/ writing community
