A literature book gives the opportunity to a reader to become a participant of the event or adventure that is the plot of the story. A book can have a great impact on the improvement or degradation of a reader as a personality. The same is with writing skills. If you are reading an outstanding author who brings positive and wise thoughts on a particular problem, you will just benefit as a personality and a writer. Thought, overlooking the “works” of vapid writers is also useful, because you see the patterns of how you are not to write. But it cuts both ways, because tastes differ, as you know.
After absorbing the good ideas and the preferred style of writing, you should begin writing any kind of material. Even though have read numerous books, you can be disable to compose good works not because for the lack of talent, but the shortage of practice. The more you write the better become your writing skills. It is necessary for you to learn to set out your personal thoughts in writing.
As you can see the reading and writing are two components of the same thing, so in order to improve your writing skills, you should practice them.

Willa Cather said about writing the following thing: “Writing ought either to be the manufacture of stories for which there is a market demand - a business as safe and commendable as making soap or breakfast foods - or it should be an art, which is always a search for something for which there is no market demand, something new and untried, where the values are intrinsic and have nothing to do with standardized values”.
Writing skills are very important for every person and if you have poor writing skills that, it is necessary to develop these skills. The main way of communication is of course speaking, but the second way after speaking is writing. Those people who are not able to speak writing can be the main way of communication. That’s why it is important to write well in order to express your thoughts and vies in clear and understandable form.
The power of words is great even if these words are in written form. Sometimes, if you are not able to say what you think, you can take sheet of paper and write it. And you will be amazed who it can be easy to express everything you feel on paper.
As it was said in the quote of Willa Cather above, writing skills can be used not only as the way to express out feelings and thoughts. They can be used as one of the possibilities to earn money. If you begin to develop your writing talent, you can start to write articles for newspapers and magazines, you can think about the career of journalist and author. Eventually, good writing skills can be of great help for you during your education. If you possess the power of word, then you will be able to write various essays and compositions without difficulties.
So, it is obvious that better to have good writing skills then bad ones, because in other case you won’t be able to use this way of communication for all it is worth.
