Hello there..
To start off I use the site Teen Ink and I'm so happy I found that site because I get to publish things I want to speak up on, and I get to publish my story's for comments and good criticism. Well I'm not very good with that, the comments I get are "It's a good story, I really like it but theirs so many spelling errors and grammatical errors, but I should finish it." Okay, I want to because I love the story I'm writing but I get to the point where I don't believe I'm good enough to write a good story.
I'm good in English class, I'm planning taking advanced English next year, but ugh I want to be a good writer I don't know what I should do ..
Any advice? Thanks for reading.. (link)

Never say you're not good enough to do something. It's good to have someone proofread it. Try to focus on these things-
•adjectives that are more colourful ex. gargantuan or towering rather than big.
•grammar- remember proper punctuation, their/there/they're, etc.
•plot- not too ranty but not too little, something new and interesting
•character personalities
•description of atmosphere, setting, etc.
•metaphors and other symbolic crap ;D along with other figurative language
Grammar is probably the least important to the story but it is helpful to meaning and whatnot. Especially with grammar nazis these days :) hope this helps, sorry if it's not what you're looking for. Good luck!
