Goodreads asked Thomas Gaffney:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Thomas Gaffney Finish. Forget perfect. Forget editing. Sit down, type/write/transcribe/however you get your ideas out of your head and recorded, and complete a project. You get better at writing by writing. And you get better at stories/novels by completing something. So even if you have to jot down an unrelated short story ~ 1000 words just to have a finished work under your belt, DO IT.
