    First--Find books or magazines that are good examples of how you would like to write and immerse yourself in them. Read as much as you can find. Use a local library if you can.

    Second--Write a lot. With practice, you will be able to get the techniques you pick up by reading ingrained in your head and eventually develop a "voice" all your own.

    Third--Get some good reference books to keep handy for spelling and grammatical questions (dictionaries and grammar check in word processing programs are useful but don't help you learn as much as they just try to correct errors). One possible suggestion: The Gregg Reference Manual by William Sabin. A book I just spotted on Amazon.com that looks promising is Reviewing Basic Grammar: A Guide to Writing Sentences and Paragraphs

    Amazon.com: Reviewing Basic Grammar: A Guide to Writing Sentences and Paragraphs (7th Edition): Books: Mary Laine Yarber,Robert Yarber

    Fourth--Some colleges offer non-credit classes to the community for lower tuition costs. See if you can find some on improving writing skills. A brief Google search on "improving writing skills" turns up a lot of possible resources also.

    Good Luck!

    Turn the screen off when you are writing, or if you are on a laptop, push the screen down so you can't see it. That way, when you make a spelling mistake, you won't notice it and you can't go back and edit. When you are done writing, turn the screen on and edit away. If you don't know the spelling or proper grammar, get a book from your local library to help you out.

    The main thing when you are writing is to write - get your ideas down. Worry about how they sound after the ideas are out there.
