We all like to be a better writer but not every one of us succeed achieving that goal. Like many others, I too struggle to write. Out of many resources, the following two articles provided me the great inspirations than others.

The first one is from a front-end web developer Sara Soueidan. In her Just Write article she shares how she struggle writing before becoming a great writer. She encourages all aspiring writers with many tips on how to write including the following quote:

What you write might help someone understand a concept that you may think has been covered enough before. We each have our own unique perspectives and writing styles. One writing style might be more approachable to some, and can therefore help and benefit a large (or even small) number of people in ways you might not expect. JUST WRITE!

The second one is from an author of the bestselling Magicians trilogy and journalist at Time magazine, Lev Grossman. In Quora discussion forum, he offered the following advise for aspiring writers:

• Get your stuff in on time.
• Don’t write anything that you wouldn’t say out loud – don’t say “perhaps,” say “maybe.” Don’t say “yet” when you mean “but.” And so on.
• Read read read, all you can, all the time. Don’t worry about other people influencing you, that’s a good thing. Your voice will still be your own.
• Write write write. Writing is a craft not a gift. You have to practice.
• Get lots of sleep.
• Make an outline.
• Don’t assume other people are smarter than you, or more talented than you, or more magic than you. Nobody knows anything. Everybody’s faking it.
