Yeah, that's definitely true about the writing part of Japanese. I honestly can't write kanji for shit, because whenever I conversed in Japanese, it was always in an online environment where my PC automatically converted kana. Other than that I just read (aka play games), so yeah.

I don't see myself living in Japan any time soon, so will I really need writing? On the other hand I'm really insecure about my lack of writing skills and find it outright embarrassing.

My native language is Spanish, so If someone needs help with something don't hesitate and ask me. I will do my best for help you

Cheers!
Honestly your English doesn't seem that bad at all. But if you need assistance with something there's a whole bunch of us that can probably help.
