Ruth Emmie Lang:
What was your experience like of writing your first novel? If you could tell your past self (before writing the novel) one thing, what would it be?
Ruth Emmie Lang
Hi Vincent, I would tell myself not to worry so much about whether or not I would ever get published. My worst writer's block came when I started worrying about what other people would think, rather than writing what made me happy. If you write something that genuinely excites you and makes you want to get out of bed in the morning, that's all that matters.
