I think some people are just better writers than others. I know I am not one of those people. To all the good people who read this board, I ask you one question. How do you get better at writing.

I'm really asking this because of this. I love to play online RP games. I've been playing on and off for about 3 years and now I know why I can't stick to it. Some games I leave because the RP isn't really what I was looking for. But I have found 2-3 games that I truely enjoy, but because I think my writing (and my roleplay for that matter) isn't that good. I can come up with all types of different characters, but in the end they all seem the same. They all seem to have the same way of moving, talking, etc. I owe this all to my lack of writing skills.

I love tabletops RPGs. Mainly because I think I am an animated person. Acting things out is sort of natural to me. I talk with my hands alot and use different voices. But online, I feel like I all my characters are one dimentional.

Most people suggest that I read more books. I already read for fun and for school. Some suggest just write down what ever comes to mind. That doesn't work much either. Can you all suggest anything else.
