Goodreads asked Brian K. Wilcox:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Brian K. Wilcox Write what you feel within has to be written and by you. What burns inside your heart, wanting to leap out like a flame into the world? What would you write even if no one ever read it? Do not write simply to write. Write as an extension of yourself, as an expression of your unique self and experience. Write, then admire what you wrote. Admire what you write, regardless of how you could have written it better. Communicating yourself through your writing can be hindered by focusing too much on technique. Technique is your servant, not you the servant of technique. You are a creator, create, and enjoy the process and outcome.
