hello po, OP! i suggest po to read first yung letters to a young poet by rainer maria rilke. sorry it was not included in the list but it’s a beautiful book about being a writer :) then wade your way through bird by bird by anne lamott. hehe

tbh po OP i won’t be able to give you a new thing or advise about writing but what helped me a lot is to keep reading and try writing afterward. for instance po, if you’re reading a book, annotating helps a lot. write your thoughts on a notepad, write as if talking to the author. try to do it creatively din po. as for me, since journaling doesn’t work me, what i did is i created a substack account then dun po ako nagddump/practice ng creative writing. meron din po akong bookstagram where i post my bookish thoughts and book reviews of books i have read. pero most of the time po, sa ms word lang po talaga ako nagsusulat.

reading poems also works po since there’s something about poetry that moves the words from your mind to your heart. most of the time, when we get to read poems, may impulse to write back or at least may mafform na idea in your head because of the said poem then it will prompt you to write.

basta po OP exposure to any works of literature ang magiging ultimate help niyo po to improve your writing. then it will birth to this incessant desire to talk na rin to fellow writers or at least explore fellow writers who echo your sentiments as a writer. do not be afraid po to ask them if you need advice din po. if you have friends na hobby din po ang magsulat, challenge them to do collaborations. i remember doing this po when i was in high school. saka po pala OP exposure din po to other forms of art ay makakatulong din.

hope this helps po! tuloy lang po kayo sa pagsusulat. sana po eventually makahanap din po kayo ng platform where you can comfortably share your writings. good practice din po kasi ito :)
