How do I sell a call option?

How do I sell a call option or what strategy to use if there is only 20 days to go for expiry & cant sell the option, having difficulties selling.
Which way do I go?

You will always be able to sell your call options if you match the prevailing bid price. Otherwise, its a journey to expiration for you and if its in the money, you could exercise it for the underlying stock but I don’t see whats the point unless you are already in significant profit. Read link below why exercising isn’t a good way to go.
