How can writing increase your success?

Various formats can help you improve your writing skills, including both traditional and digital forms. Traditional writing is important, which typically involves using pen and paper. However, writing encompasses more than just traditional methods and includes various digital communication forms.

Specifically, the following as examples of writing formats:
