Before you know it, you're rusting up, gathering dust, getting dull, however you want to put it. That's why practice and fine tuning are so important. Yes, you might be the best and most excellent of writers, but once in a while everyone needs polishing. A few little excercises can get you back up and running very quickly. One method is to look up online story prompts and write a paragraph or two with that storyline. One of the characteristics of a strong writer is one whose style is very versatile and can handle lots of subject material at once. Expand your horizons, include all kinds of plots, styles, and points of view. Another way to improve your writing is to have teachers or fellow writers give you feedback on what they thought. Is the point of your story getting across clearly? What parts seem to be unclear to your reader? Lastly, a great resource for writers who have already completed something and are looking for easy publishing methods is iBooks Author. It's completely free and can be published into an ebook, compatible with the majority of e-readers including iPads. Pretty awesome huh? Well, in a few years, look for my latest works ^.^
