You could hook up with someone who is a good writer and co-author something. Work with them to get your ideas on paper in a coherent and intelligent way that presents the stories you have in your head while making them interesting and understandable to the audience.

I hear the best way to become a writer is to write. Kurt Vonnegut said that anyone can be a writer, there is nothing innate about it. Just start writing stuff down, eventually you will develop a voice and be able to pick the good from the bad.


Good luck.

Reply:Try a ghostwriter. They write your stories and don't take the credit. Many celebrities use them for their autobiographies and the like.
Reply:Writing is all about telling a story, of getting the reader to see something through the eyes of your characters that they might have never seen before. If you have a good story, that is the first battle, then you need to tell it in a way that clenches the reader. Most books on "how to write" are utterly useless; if you follow their advice your writing will become generic and boring. The best authors are ones who write in their own unique style, whatever that is.





To learn how to write you need to write. There are many books around that offer suggestions for writing practice exercises, they will give you topics to write about.





Another good thing to do is join a writing group. If there's none around, start one. Get a group of peers that meets once or twice a month in which you share your writing and give feedback. With the right group you will really grow.





Write a journal, write music, just write and eventually you will start having documents you are proud of.
Reply:but how do you know that you can't write?





you could pick up 10 books by 10 different authors and each will have their own writing style





you'll never get those thoughts on paper if you don't take a chance





you have nothing to lose





and if its spelling or grammar that you're worried about - that's what spellcheck is for
Reply:Write. As you keep writing, you'll improve. And when you read books try to pick up tips on spelling, grammar, sentence structure and the like.





I've got the opposite problem. I can write but I don't have any brilliant ideas.
