Goodreads asked Gregory Stout:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Gregory Stout I think there are two kinds of books an author can write. One is a book you want to write; the other is a book you MUST write, because it is a story or a topic that is supremely important to you. Begin by writing that story, and never, NEVER give up.
