The most difficult thing about writing in Chinese is that I have "patches" in my vocab so it's difficult to string entire sentences, especially on difficult subjects like politics. Yet, it's a mystery that I comprehend much more than I can speak/write.

It's like the two brain spheres are not connected. (prob sound neurological reasons for this)

So the only way to bridge this gap is to speak and write more.

Language production is a skill that is far more complex than language comprehension! There are so many moving pieces that you have to wrangle into submission first.
