I am writing a novel.

"If I write IELTS answers every day, will it help me increase my score?"

The short answer is the annoying "It depends."
Here are some considerations:
1. Writing every day certainly helps with timing. If timing is a problem, then the answer is Yes.
2. In order to improve though, you need to add new things to your writing. It’s totally possible to write 30 IELTS essays in one month, and they will all be the same old level. To improve, you need to add something you haven't used before: higher level lexis, a complex grammar structure, a new cohesive device, deeper development of the idea. 
3. It's probably best to write daily-ish rather than daily. I'm afraid writing every single day might result in getting fed up with IELTS, and this is not a feeling conducive to improvement. Alternatively, you can write daily, but not always full answers, especially if you want to focus on adding new elements.
Overall, it is certainly a great idea to write often - this will give you confidence and courage.
Where do you stand on writing IELTS answers daily? Any important considerations I missed?
