In a book that I am reading, On Writing, by Stephen King, he states:
I'm certainly not a great writer and I don't think anyone here is a bad writer...
I believe that a good writer CAN become a great one- but you'll have to work, read and write as much as you can.
Maybe a bad writer at this time CAN'T become good or great, but I believe that he/she can at least gain even a tiny bit of competency.
What do you think about this? And do you think that some bad writings we might have done in the past reflect in our writings now?
BTW, I looked up competent and it says: Capable, fit or qualified.

I agree, poy. With bad writers, well, I believe they could become okay. With okay writers, they can become good. With good writers, they can become great.
It just takes a lot of work.
Plus, a lot of younger writers will improve with age, so they're okay/good writers that may become good/great ones.
So Stephen King is wrong! Nyaa, nyaa! ;D
