This Is The Only Way To Become A Better Writer
The fact That most writers don’t know
Please! give me your 2 minutes.
When it comes to writing, most people teach you lots of different things about things — be consistent, have patience, read books, learn from others, work hard, and blah, blah, blah.
Ok, I agree with this, I do believe all these things matter. But this is not the point that helps you to become a better writer. These all are aspects and factors of writing, not that actually make you better at writing.
Yes, I said it.
Think about it.
You’re consistent, but not writing enough.
You have patience, but not writing enough.
You read books, but not writing anything.
Could you become a great writer with that?
100% not.
So What makes you a better writer?
Well, the answer is simple. Want to know?
Write a lot.
That’s it.
Write as much as you can. Writing is a game, the more practice you do the more chances of your winning will be.
Let alone consistency, patience, reading books, hard work, and learning. When you write a lot these things will come along the way.
Thus, If you want to become a great writer don’t treat writing as a hobby. You have to play the game, the writing game, the volume game, everything here is a game.

The greatest success comes from failure.
Keep Writing.
