Goodreads asked William R. Pope:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

William R. Pope Well, i guess, read a lot. Especially in the style you wish to write. But also other books as well. Then start writing. I actually didn't do much reading in the memior style before i started. I liked philosophy and science fiction and some history. I also was reading technical stuff on computer science.

I thought i was a natural satirist and storyteller so figured i could just do it. Luckily for me i hired a good editor while writing my book.
