Your writing *is* really good. English isn't my first language, either... but there's something about it that *made* it my preferred writing language by the time I was about 17-18. I don't know Finnish so well, but I know that the English language has *many* more words than Danish... it allows for a sort of nuanced "painting with words" I have never been able to accomplish in Danish.

Unlike you, writing is my "natural space." If given a choice between writing you a letter and talking to you on the phone, I'd almost always choose the letter. And it's only with *some* people I would choose their face-to-face company over a letter exchange. 

But yes, your writing is good... regardless of what side of you I am on. But remember this, writing is best when you write for *yourself,* not for others. Do it because you *want* to, not because people "expect" it.

It's the same compared to Finnish, a lot more words, and that is partly why I like it too! "Painting with words" is exactly what I enjoy. 

I also prefer to write to people, much rather than to talk on a phone, I guess it's partly because I'm shy and partly because when I write, I at least think more than a split second of what I am going to say. 

And don't worry, I'm very selfish, I only write what I want and when I want to ;)
