or:Honestly, there's no fast way in improving yourself. Language is a nuanced and complicated thing to master.It depends on what you're writing though. Whatever genre you enjoy or have a story for, read about it and understand some of the words that are often incorporated into the book.Like in action books or movies, some words often used to describe settings, scenes or actions are 'thrilling' and 'intense'.Understanding you're material and getting basics, like spellings and keeping a proper POV down, are the best things a fourteen-year-old can focus on.Good luck on whatever it is you strive to write. :^)


or:You need to read novels. Lots of novels. Any novels. Notice that they all have perfect spelling, perfect punctuation, perfect composition. Notice where they use one space and where they use two. Notice that every speaker in a dialog gets a new paragraph, and every paragraph is preceded by a blank line. Notice any writing techniques or figures of speech. Take notes so you know where you found what you know. It takes a lot of reading to be a writer.Instead of looking at one word at a time, look at two words. That forces you to stop talking to yourself, so you are no longer limited to reading as fast as you can talk. You probably talk about 100 words per minute (WPM). The average college graduate reads 300 WPM. Just by looking at two words at a time you can read 600 WPM. Then by looking at a whole line at a time you can read much faster. The big benefit is that your memory expands along with your reading speed so you can remember the large volume of information you are taking in. With a little practice it is possible to read an entire page in two seconds with near total recall of the information on it.


or:Read lots of books. Don't just pay attention to the story but how the story leads you to where the author wants to take you.Increase your vocabulary.Learn how to use a Thesaurus.


or:My answer is three part: Read, Practice writing, and observe different styles of writing. The site WritersCafe.org is quite helpful [if you get it look me up at JustNonsenseAndSugar there]. Share writing, read others, pick up your own style. Reading books can give you new ideas and exposure to new writing styles and frequently writing can give you better fluency. As for being 'only fourteen', it doesn't matter how old you are, you can improve your writing all through your life. No writer is ever perfect.
