Look, as a non-native English writer myself, all I can tell you is that you need to practice like anyone else (and just because they're native, any given writer is so not automatically better than you) - write a lot, get someone you trust to read it over and tell that person to be as honest with you as they can be. Don't use the English as Second Language bit as an excuse for writing that you yourself aren't satisfied with and try to build up some pride in your words. They're precious, more so for taking more effort than your regular native fan's.

I get really annoyed when native English speakers talk of ESL-writers as somehow less capable, and it doesn't help if we promote that stereotype. It takes time and dedication, but you will be as good as any native writer, if you practice. There's really no point in crying about being treated badly for being obviously non-native if what you want is for people not to be able to tell at all, and that requires you to do something about it.

There are often beta-finder communities in your specific fandom, and I've heard of general beta comms and fic crit places. I can try and look around if you want.

This.

And heck, I'm a native English speaker and I couldn't have told that you aren't from this comment. If I were the OP I'd take your advice to heart!
