Someone online suggested that to me, but here’s my dilemma: I s*ck at writing (I think, my personal opinion) & my grammar is horrible. Would it even be worth wild for me to pursue?
Here is a link to the two strange dreams I had & posted on Answers:

Ok that's a good point "Edit, edit, edit"

Most definitely. You should start right away. Literature it's 1% talent and 99% hard work. In order to improve your grammar and pick the secrets of the trade, you have to start reading what other people have written along the years. Practice will give you the advantage, but the edge rests on your hability to tell the story of your dream. So, start writing, and start reading, but never stop writing. Carry a notebook or a laptop or something to write whatever comes to mind. It can be useful later.
Don't dismay!

Don't be so self-indulgent. Keep a diary. In the meantime, take an english class. By the time you finish that course you may have created the blockbuster novel of all time. Edit, edit, edit!

First of all, I think your dreams are visions because my hubby and I have them. They tell us of what God has in store for us or what he wants us to look back on. I think you should write your book but you can get someone like me to help you write it. I enjoy helping out people free of charge. I like english, proofreading, and just helping out in arenas people aren't good at.

Look online, for community colleges in your area, see if they teach writing courses.

I hate to be the one to tell you this but as one friend to another, other people's dreams are so BORING!

Start with short stories.Then you can decide if it's worth your while to go on to novels.

I would go for it. It was interesting, follow your dreams. We all have a purpose in life maybe this is yours.
