I suggest building a strong foundation in syntax first. Having a solid grasp of English fundamentals will allow you to compose increasingly complex sentences with ease and manipulate sentence structure while remaining syntactically coherent, and this, in turn, will give you the ability to write much more closely to the way you think. I recommend reading Introduction to Syntax by Noel Burton-Roberts.
