S.A. Edwards Learn everything you can. Read blogs, take a course, read widely. Write, write, and write some more. You're only going to get better by practising and learning. Eventually, you'll look back on previous writing and cringe and say, 'I can't believe I wrote this'. That's a good sign. It means you're growing as a writer.

Take a break if you need it, but be sure not to take too long. Keep coming back. Keep writing.

Never give up.
S.A. Edwards I'm a planner. I find that if I plan a novel over several months, there's no room for block -- as in no ideas. Taking time to plan rather than rushing allows ideas to come spontaneously. When I'm writing and block hits -- as in hitting that wall, feeling like I can't be bothered -- I take a break. Sometimes a day or two is all I need to find that spark and get back to writing again.
S.A. Edwards Having adventures. Visiting new worlds. And sharing my stories with others who love them.
S.A. Edwards I'm doing a final polish of an adventure thriller that I plan to query in the second half of 2022. I'm also writing a first draft of my ninth novel.
