Its a good build, I would just put the 2 points from Imp. Blink into Torment the Weak. Most tanks have ways of slowing down the creature so you can just DPS and it'll work. What you want to do is pick talents that give a nice bonus to damage, or let you do more damage sooner.
lets you use abilities sooner meaning you can do more damage or restore mana sooner then if you didn't choose the talent.

First of all thank you for the advice. Regarding the Torment the Week skill, do I benefit from the slow effect of Frostbold? since it’s the only ranged spell with a slow effect I have at the moment. I also have Cone of Cold which gives the same effect but I said I am a rookie player so if a warrior or paladin gets so close that I must use that …. I am dead … hahaha !
Yes as long as they're slowed/snared it will do more damage, that's why it still works if another class has them slowed or snared. The thing is that only arcane spells get the bonus, so after casting frostbolt to slow them you'll need to use arcane missiles and/or blast for the bonus damage. Don't worry for to long though as you actually get
Slow
later and
just a point or 2 after that.
If you plan on PvPing, or you play on a PvP server, going frost might be better as you get more control and survivability. Allowing you to survive just a little bit longer.
