Goodreads asked C.J. Ives Lopez:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

C.J. Ives Lopez Write! No matter what your doing, write. If you don't have your computer in front of you, turn on the recorder on your phone and say out loud the thoughts that are going on in your head. You can transcribe them later. I have been riding in the car and a thought came to my head. I asked Siri to record and it later turned into an idea for a book. Just don't let a single idea escape. Some of them will not turn out, but others will be miraculous stories.
