I too attempt to write every day. It's all DOTE related at the moment, though I'm hoping to transition to other works soon. I've reached a point where I find writing to be more fun than video games, so that helps.

At the end of the day the first three points have been answered. there's only a limited way someone can define prose, it's use and purpose.
As for the fourth its a simple matter of practising, writing and reading other peoples work. There is one other factor though which is vital.
You have to WANT to improve. Sounds daft I know but... If the thirst isn't there then the writer won't push themselves to get better, they won't push out the boundaries of their thesaurus. The writer will do what they have always done.
There has to be that thirst to improve. A hunger for it. Without that, it's meaningless.
Read other peoples work, learn from their mistakes as well as your own.

You know, I only post the questions to get people thinking, not because I'm looking for specific answers. The point is really just to generate discussion.
