Keep writing. Even if it's terrible. Practice makes improvement, none of us are ever perfect at it; there's always room to grow and learn. I didn't finish half the novels I wrote in the beginning of my writing journey. I have several terribly written manuscripts that will never go to print. But I'm thankful for the hours I spent writing them, because they helped me develop my writing style and taught me persistence and patience. So, keep writing. Even if it's terrible. Because one day, it will be great.

I personally do a variety of things to encourage creative writing. Listen to emotionally enticing music, there's a load of playlists for writers that I'll listen to while I'm in the car to help my mind get creative. Being outside in nature, going for a walk, riding horses, laying in the grass, anything that you can do outdoors and in nature; this always helps with the flow of imagination and creating interesting plot twists. Also, reading books and discovering other authors' work helps get rid of writer's block.
