Is it possible to teach someone to write well, or does eloquence come naturally? Let’s find out. I did some “research” on Google and found a few writing blogs. I am going to see if any of these writing-bloggers are up to the challenge. Can you help me write better?
This is an interesting opportunity because these individuals have the chance to put their abilities to the test. They can show the world if they really posses possess the ability to make someone write better. What do they get if they win? Bragging rights. Five years from now they can say “I helped Jeremy David become the writer he is today.” If successful, that statement could have a lot of weight to it… maybe I’ll dedicate a book or two to them, ha ha ha. Seriously though, if anyone is up to the challenge please let me know!
Here are the blogs I am going to contact:
- copywriter.typepad.com
- thegoldenpencil.com
- mywritingblog.com/writer
- fabfreelancewriting.com/blog
- sixfigurewriters.com
- writeandearnaliving.blogspot.com
- copyblogger.com
- copywriterunderground.com
- successful-blog.com

The purpose of this blog is to help me become a better writer. I want to be able to write compelling literature.
My friend and I were talking the other day and she asked me what I would want to do if I could have any job. I thought about it for a minute and told her that I’ve always wanted to be a writer. If I had to chose a niche I would have said a screenplay writer. The only problem is that my writing sucks… which is a rather large dilemma considering what I want to do.
So here I am, creating a blog about writing. Actually, to be more specific, this blog will be writing. Eventually I hope to be proficient enough to help other people learn to write, but for the time being this will be an exercise in improving myself. I hope this proves interesting and useful to people who have stumbled upon this page, like you.
If you are interested there are several things you can do to help. First, criticize everything I write. Constructively. I want to become better, not self-loathing and emotional. Second, if you know of any great writing recourses, please tell me about them. The more I learn, the (I’m trying to think of another word for better) more my… I can’t do it. Maybe I need a thesaurus. Anyway. Third, become a part of this process. If there is anything you think I should write about, share your ideas. If I want to improve, I am going to have to write a lot.
