For writing English, the book "The Elements of Style" by Strunk and White is considered to be the authority, at least in the US.
If you just want to be a better writer, the only thing you can do is write, and write all the time. The easiest way to do that is to participate in a lot of forums... like the Cellar!
I've watched a lot of people become great writers through electronic and internet communities. There's something motivational about it, because you're not writing for a grade or for a meaningless school paper, you're writing to real people who will definitely read what you've written.
Of course, some of the forums out there are full of idiots, and writing to them probably won't help...
