Becoming a writer, suggestions please

Hello everyone, Could anyone here please help me by giving me some suggestions. Ok,here's my problem,I want to become a writer


someday, maybe next year if I could further improve my grammar and writing skills. I need some suggestions because I don't


know if what I'm doing right now, reading articles, could improve my writing skills. Everytime I read a particular article,


which is 3 pages,it took me 2 hours to finish each. I underline some sentences, which are the hard ones, because my sentence


structuring is poor and I know that I would need to adhere the skills of the writers of the articles which I'm reading to.


Is this enough for me to become a good writer someday? And please suggest me some of your techniques to become a skillful
writer.

Please correct if I'd mistake in my sentences.

Thanks
Raymond.
