In fact, I no longer think of English as a foreign language, it has become second nature although I still struggle from time to time to express some thoughts in particular. The same happens with French though, I tend to forget words, although I know they exist. When I was younger and I wrote things, for example for the French class at my high school, I had a tendency to want to integrate complex words nowhere and everywhere (is that even and expression?) - I'd put a whole slew of it, and then some. I like slew now.
And the result was that what I wrote was non-homogenous. Just as the music I wrote back then. Maybe it was more creative because more came out of it, but at the same time it was less "regular" than it is now. Even though the 750 words I write each day are mostly shit, I do write them, and it is becoming an habit. Do you ever become good at writing? Maybe I need exercises.
Let's write the phrase "Maybe I need exercises" in a few different ways.
"Maybe I need exercises"
"Maybe writing is a talent that needs to be exercised"
"Perhaps writing does not come naturally, but rather is the product of constant training."
"Writing is, at its core, a creative endeavor. However, it is not too dissimilar to running in that regular and thorough practice is required. Jotting down 750 words each day is more of a mechanical feat than a creative one, but coupled with a few simple rules, it can do miracles."
"Much has been said about inspiration. It often eludes ourselves, and is found in the most unexpected places. Be that as it may, it should be noted that a weekly stroke of genius is no substitute for daily writing practice. Making yourself go through a certain volume of work every day is akin to flexing your muscles: it is not enough to find the courage to do a marathon. Writing regularly, as reluctant and straining as it may appear at first, will give you the intellectual force to gracefully realise your vision once inspiration strikes. Don't take my word for it – but give it a real shot. A few weeks are not enough to earn you the right to discard my method. For any discipline you want to excel at, the basic principle stands: practice a lot, every day."
