Ive noticed that one of my week points is my writing. I really want to improve it and I guess it must have something to do with the fact that they stopped teaching writing skills. since it is not required on the fcat any more. Any help would be appreciated =) p.s if your going to write something stupid / disrespectful just save it for someone who cares.

The best way to improve your writing is to read. Not the badly written stuff you get on forums, grab some novels and read, read, read. Your brain will remember how words are spelled, and ways in which the writer puts them together, and you will get better at writing. Trust me I 100% guarantee this will work.

Also, if you're looking for some books to stimulate your mind, might I suggest "Go Dog Go"?
Seriously though, just read a lot of intellectual books and write journals about your day or something. Anything to keep you writing.

Yes. Writing isn't a science, it's an art.
That means you can only Model.
But yeah.. you always want to follow some basic formats of writing:
1. Hook, State Thesis 2. Back up thesis w/Stories, Data, Statistics, Explanation 3. Relate it to the reader

and the end result to make more sence. I've noticed you need help....with writing. First tip: Its sense. Second tip: Google "Develop writing skills" Third tip: Write. Ask your English teacher when school starts if you can have essay's for extra credit or just for her to grade and go over with you. Finally: Use a spell checker. Even online. All my post have giod spewlling. Thnak you google chrme.
