I think that's one of the reasons why learning how to write is known as 'learning one's craft' rather than some other term. Anyone can write if they put their minds to it, but writing well is something that takes more than just a pen and paper. Mark Twain said it well,"The difference between the right word and the almost right word is like the difference between lightning and the lightning bug."
