According to you, What is the basic qualification needed to become a 'writer'?

Let me answer from a writers point of view: you need the gift and the passion...you can always develop your craft, but of these two are mandatory:)

Great imagination power is only effective if it can be able to put into action and work.

In my opinion great imagination power

Good knowledge in vocabulary and intelligent thought process.

The basic qualification is the ability to imagine creatively and be a dreamer. You can write only if you can dream.

"Writer" is a subjective term that varies person to person, like being "good" or "responsible." Some people consider it to be writing every day on a schedule, while others consider themselves writers because they like to write personal, unpublished poems.

Instead of asking others for an answer, it's best to define the term for yourself.

Have a passion for writing. Have something to write about, don't just write for the sake of writing. Know how to use words (even though when one is inspired the words seem to flow). Know your grammar.

Sachin Pal Every one who is in this world is a writer this is personnel exp every person is having a writer inside and we can search it only through meditation

I write a lot and what has kept me going in my 8yrs of writing is PASSION!!! Writing is not just something you dive into if you want to make fast money or else you hate it. Again you must be creative, broadminded, outspoken, and fluent in English. Why English? With English language, you can communicate to people all over the globe.

Good in english, knowledge about the topic are the basic requirements of the writer.

To be a perfect writer writing must be your passion.

One should know his/her niche and expertise. Command over language and grammar are necessary but not mandatory as long as one knows to express his/her views.

To be a writer one should be interested and have to have knack for it. Writing is a creative art and required solid state of mind and cognitive knowledge. Moreover, education has no other alternatives.

IMHO, the most important thing is a proper knowledge of the language you are about to write on. As for the knowledge of the topic, you can get facts right from online and just rewrite them or something like that.

I think all that is required is been able to speak and read !!

hi,
I would say that apart from the above mentioned, one would need a desire and love of writing so that enthusiasm and zeal for your subject comes across to the reader.

I would say that it is always best to keep writing simple and straightforward, as complicated language with words and phrases that are difficult to understand, may prove to be tough-going for the majority of readers who would be more likely to give up trying and move to another writer that is easier to understand. That's my op

Know the words limit, density of keywords and the tittle relevancy.......................

It depends from person to person, & in what field/category/subject U want to focus on, & of course in which language U are planning to write. Remember, no one or nothing on earth can teach U how to be a good writer. Even creative writing courses are to make your 'writing talents' stronger, & not to teach U how to write. So, my 'advice' would be, follow your INSTINCTS, & never give up. Great writers lie William Shakespeare, Thomas Hardy & Charles Dickens did not become famous or 'great' in a sing

Knowledge of subject and some power of imagination is must for writing work.
