What kind of writing help? Grammar? Story Telling? Basic literature skills? I can help with all, I have been known to dabble in the writing arts...
Here is some quick tips I learned from my old writing teacher.
Most good writers/story tellers try hard not to use the same word too much in one sentance/statement. I personally try not to use the same word pretaining to a person, place, or thing too much in one paragraph.
Poetic justice, many people can appreciate poetic liscensing when it comes to writing. It can be simpler than you think, just put your mind to it. It is easy to start writing a story and BOOM you end up giving a play by play, INSTEAD of a story.
In all reality o_O these tips pretain too all forms of literature, articles, books, stories, and all that good crap. Well, maybe not scripts, scripts have to be simplistic... crap I am babbling.
As for story IDEAS, that is something you have to draw from your surroundings, experience, stuff like that. One of my short stories which now has a little 'cult' fallowing behind it, is loosely based upon events and such that have surrounded me my entire life.
Hmmm, that is all the advice I can give at the moment. ^^; I am rather tired...
And we must use...
