For myself, I have the same disconnect in my brain for writing as I do basic art. What I mean is when I try and draw something, I can never get my mind and body to get it to come out like I want it...it feels like there is some kind of block in my brain. The same goes for writing. The ability to express the mood, context, and events in words on paper feels completely unnatural...and as a result all writing has that constant albatross; this looming doubt in the back of my mind plaguing any new attempts with doubt and uncertainty. Moreover, it has that has always been the case. For as long as I can remember, language and art have always felt very forgiven in my brain...like a man from a planet where they only have one leg learning the jitterbug.

I really do think it is a product of brain ability and formation. There does seem to be a tenancy for people who are analytic and scientific (and I use those loosely) to have large problems in the area of language and creativity (and I use those loosely). If you have ever seen an engineer craft a user interface...it becomes readily obvious. For some, there might be an certain level of elitism in language to "test" those whom are reading, but I would say on the whole most people are just unable to transcend their own inadequacy of the grasp of using language "properly". (I have misspelled language every time it was used in these short couple of paragraphs, I actually fear writing to a certain extent because of my inability to spell)

A brief example of how I write. This has no spell checker to back me up. I will just write things as they come to my mind as to how to spell them. It will not be edited by concience or googled to find the approprite spelling. Truely, the only thing that frightens me more than spelling is grammer. Who can it be that I can talk with someone and convay and idea, but when it comes to sentence structure of the written lanugage I fail so hard. Why does a run on not look like a run on? How the hell do I really use this comma thing? Semi-colen...now your just fricken around right? O there is a normal colen too...I use that for pooping! In all, if I had no aid of a word processor, writing would take me ages, I would never do it and it would still come out looking like a monkey trying to write shackspere trying to hammer out a litterary work. Yes, it is safe to say I hate writing because it hated me first. However, I love it. It is the same with art, I see what other masters are able to make and it truely inspires me. It is my ineptitude that makes it ever more wonderus. So I compair your aditude to the same I get when I see ads for best buy. I look at what they sell people and I am shocked. You can't do that? Really? Are you an idiot? I can do that and not ever break a sweet. But others really can't do it, or can't be bothered. For me, I just can't. My brain be broken when it comes to diction and conciceness. WHen I use the wrong word or run on and on, it because I really, really don't know what I am doing. It hasn't been for a lack of trying, it is just my efforts are rewarded with only marginal movments in progress. Hard to believe, but this might be the best I have ever writen!

(ack that's terrible, though I didn't take any time to edit that, I wrote it straight out which I would never do in reality)

For most people, the harder they try to sound refined, the more they blunder with convoluted phrases. Yet, in everyday speech they may reveal themselves as being perfectly capable of expressing ideas clearly and concisely. College-level lectures exist entirely to compensate for the communication impediment that arises when people try to behave like peacocks on the page. Most textbooks are terrible.
