If you havent got writing as an inborn feature. Does that mean it would happen for you another way.

Does it comput the ideas of becoming a writer?

Well... not at all.

I don't understand when people say that writing is something of an innate talent... While it is true that creative geniuses are usually born as such, to write a book, which I assume is your prime objective, doesn't require much precocity at all. (believe me, I've read some of the books on the market and some are just... how you say, unreadable) :-)

To improve on your writing, simply read alot of books and study the English language. I don't think that there is any other route... And no, a tutor will not help you write better (if anything he'll just help you out of your money)

I agree with uppity. If you ask me what my best subject in school was, it was most certainly mathematics. 'Learned psychologists' would say that I shouldn't be a very creative person as a result, but I do manage to pull of writing reasonably well, so I don't know there. =P

I enjoy writing, but I am not sure that I would say I was born with innate writing skills. I was born with tons of creativity and I read as often as possible and study the English language and sentence structure in order to manifest my creativity into great writing.
