There is no gramatical mistake in your sentence, but I suggest dividing into 2 sentences.

"But first of all, please forgive me for my terrible writing. It might be difficult to understand due to my bad English."

Try to avoid to start a sentence with a "but" Just write, please forgive me for my terrible writing because it might be difficult for you to understand due to my imperfect English.

"First, please forgive me for my terrible writing, because it might be difficult to understand my imperfect English."
This is my rewriting. I hope it will be helpful.

"To start with, please excuse my poor writing you might find difficult to understand due to my bad English".
