"Bird by bird"

"On writing" by Stephen kings.

There are thousand and one books out there for you to read. However, it is not always about the number of books read but doing the actual writing. You can get these books free on pdfdrive. net.

Join writing groups on facebook or if you find any on whatsapp. This will motivate you to write everyday. You become better by writing everyday and also reading a lot. For your punctuation and good use of grammar you can just get your secondary school English textbook. This will give you the basics you probably didn't pay attention to when you were in secondary school. You just need to understand the part of speech like the noun, pronoun, etc.

Join mailing list of writing blogs. Don't expect to be a king of writing the first time you start. You are permitted to start small and grow big. Most people don't get it perfect at the first try.

The biggest secrete to writing is consistency. Forget all the other rules you know. If you don't practice you won't get better.
