Writing in English

Writing is an unjustly neglected area of English language teaching and learning. Writing is difficult, even for professional writers it is a time consuming and sometimes a hard task. On the other hand it plays a very important part in our daily life. We are bound to writing if not more than a shopping list, at least. Some "crazy" people even go to writing poems.
Writing can be just as self-satisfying and joyful as reading. All we need is some practice and some intention to write what we really want to communicate.

Internet is a very good opportunity for writing. Somebody for example has had to jot down some symbols for this page to be read. This person, I can tell you, enjoyed writing these sentences very much. Other can also try it.
We are on the highway of free communication. For Hungarians and other non-native English speakers there is a small barrier,though. Most of the highway is in English. So here I would like to invite all those, who do not speak English as their mother tongue, but studying it, to practice writing in English and help each other.
I would like to give you a chance to publish your writings on the Internet. Though anybody can have some space somewhere to publish something and somebody will quite possibly read it some time in the future, I believe it is much better to put things together at one place and make it explicit for everybody. What I mean is an electronic - or if you prefer - a virtual magazine written by non-native English speakers.
"Who will read it?" one may ask. I do not know. Perhaps John Smith from London or Myoko Ono from Japan, but I will try to make the magazine as wide-spread as possible. There are lots of English speakers and learners out there who are interested in other countries, languages, people, cultures and lots of other things.
All in all, I think putting my writing on the Net is very exciting and doing it together with others makes it even more interesting. Let's see what will happen. Perhaps it is a good chance to make friends, to see what others think of those things that I am thinking of, my hobbies, musical interest and lots of other things. Only, in order to be able to read each others ideas we have to write, so come on.
Have a look at the MagaziNet and also contribute to any of the coloums.

Sorry, I am still working on the rest:
