Goodreads asked Merry Freer:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Merry Freer Get your story out first, before worrying about refining. My nephew, who is a writer, calls it "writing by projectile vomiting". If you constantly stop to make corrections, you miss the opportunity of getting the bigger ideas on paper while they are still fresh. Also, I carry a notebook with me always! You never know when an interesting idea will come to you.
