Goodreads asked F.S. Yousaf:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

F.S. Yousaf Write, write, write. And when you think you're done, write some more. Write every day to hone your craft. Write on your happiest of days, the days you're sad, and the days when you feel like you cannot go on any longer (of course, self-care too). Practice makes you better at writing. And also, start small and don't beat yourself up for not churning out poems or books every month or year. You are your own person, and if that means one sentence is all you can write, don't push it.
