Don't feel rushed when writing forum posts: always give your one hundred percent when writing! Avoid writing things by ear (as a native French speaker, seeing anglophones trying to write in French by sounding out syllables is painful) since it is rather unreliable. Don't hesitate to use autocorrect to catch obvious mistakes, but apply careful judgement to words you feel iffy about. I sometimes have trouble with particular words when typing up stories so I open up a new tab on my browser and consult online dictionaries.
But most importantly: read! It helps you keep your language skills sharp and exposes you to new words.
