Goodreads asked Suzanne Strong:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Suzanne Strong Just keep writing, and write something that you are passionate about and will inspire you, as you need to set aside about 2-3 years of your life at least. I had problems with ideas that I couldn't commit to, as they were not inspiring enough. Where the Sun Rises based on the Kurdish women soldiers, inspired me the whole time. You need to find ideas that will do this for you. Keep writing. Write not for acclaim but to write a story that expresses the human condition and reflects life and says something. Well, that's what I like to do. I want to write some humourous writing soon. Try different styles of writing as well. :)
