Help to get good at writing.

[SweetShark]

Now, I know that the best solution to get good at writing is....to write a lot until you get use of it.
However my main problem I have most of the time when I write a story is I can't express correctly different feelings I want to present to someone he/she read my stories or when I want to describe a situation or even a place with big details.
Also I don't know how many details I must have when I tell a story.

I know I sound really stupid by asking this, but I really want to write one day a complete story.
I have a lot of good ideas [like most of us] and want and I write them down, but I want also to be acceptable to other people.

Thank you for your help.

An important side note is I write most of my stories in Greek, but sometimes I write some in english as well......with many mistakes of courses....

Welp, let's see here .... first and foremost, know the difference between show and tell. As a writer, your words do both. So when trying to describe something, only lay the ground work, the foundation, the basics. Beyond that, let the reader fill in the blanks with their own imagination. Be descriptive, just don't go overboard. I guess since you don't quite know much yet, look at the following comparison as a rough cut example.

As for expressing feelings to the reader, well, look no further than an image that's being retoasted everywhere.

If you want to convey a character is sad, do so. Or if you want the character to be happy, even though he's on a battlefield with hundreds of his buddies being slain, do so. It's not as hard as you make it out to be. Always remember that, makes writing that much easier.
And hell, when in doubt, take a walk and get some fresh air.
Don't worry about being acceptable to other people. That's the last thing that should be on your mind. Write the stories YOU want to write. Just .... practice before sending them out to the world wide web ey?

Read. Read everything, not just the genre you want to write.

It's the best way to learn how to write.

How someone else explains a character, their thoughts and feelings will inspire you. Compare it to how another writer explains a similar situation. Try it using completely different genres, like fantasy and modern mystery.

Go out and people watch. Study their body language, their facial expressions. How they move their hands, like how someone holds their bag straps when they're waiting for a bus, or when they're talking to someone. Study their clothes. Shoes tell you a lot about a person. Are they well cared for? Are they appropriate for the weather/situation, or is the person more concerned with style/comfort/limited by cost? You can infer so much about a person by a quick glance. When writing a character, you're giving the reader a quick glance and they infer the rest.

But, read is my best advice. The more I read, the more inspired I am to write. The better I am at writing.

After you develop what you want to convey, get someone who is good at editing. A critical eye from someone you trust is a priceless treasure.

Very, VERY good advises.
Thank you for giving me a idea of how I should write.
And yes, I need a lot of practice when I write in English I must admit...
