Set up a writing schedule. Divide the available time into learning time and practicing time.
Use half of the learning time to collate online resources related to writing. Conduct a search online using a search engine to find resources such as blogs, websites, forums and feeds related to writing.
Use the pen and notebook or the word processor to take notes on writing prompts, writing genre forms, new words or general advice.
Write during the practicing time. Use the word processor or the pen and notebook to write. Use the notes on writing prompts and forms as guides or write in a stream-of-consciousness style.
Edit the writing. Use the notes taken from the online resources to modify and revise the writing.
Publish the revised writing online. Start a blog online using a free online blogging software in order to see the edited work in a new format and get feedback from other online writers.
Repeat the writing schedule on a daily and weekly basis for best results.
