Writing can be nice activity for those who love it and vice versa. Even though you dislike writing you can have computer to help you. Basically writing more focus on accuracy. The main point is about the grammar. You may have Microsoft office to check the grammar, punctuation and spelling. The grammar is already constructed so you just block the sentences and use which language you will use. For website, you can use compcomp.com which provide all about grammar.
Beside grammar, the content of your writing is important. However your grammar is great but the content is bad so it all should be balance. Here critical thinking is needed. You need literature to support it. So your writing content is connecting. Actually content is to develop the content knowledge. There are some websites to help you richer the content. Encyclopedia, national geographic and online library of literature can be use as the website. You can use Purdue owl to check to reference.
Actually writing process is based on the writer. I would like to write everything that comes up in my mind. I do love free writing. I just write the idea, read it and sometimes revise it. Prior knowledge is needed. May be brainstorming will help you to control the content. So writing is based on the person way to express their idea and construct it into the sentences.
