How to Sharpen your Writing Skills

Ivin Viljoen (of authopublisher.com) is a columnist, scriptwriter, blogger and published author. He found 6 ways that can help a freelance writer to sharpen his/her writing skills, and guest posted those on getpaidtowriteonline.com.Those six ways are:

1. Blog
2. Volunteer
3. Creative writing contests
4. 'Journaling'
5. Poetry
6. Seek out a mentor


Personally, I doubt those 6 would suit every freelancing writer out there in the wild. Poetry? Really? Do poetry-readers still exist? If so, can you make some money out of poetry writing? Doubt that.

Still, any freelancer can get an idea or two from that article, I know I'm blogging to sharpen my skills, You be the judge on how good I'm doing.
