Goodreads asked Joel David Levin:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Joel David Levin I know it sounds pithy, but read and write as much as you can! The learning curve for writing a novel is steeper than the 30+% streets in San Francisco. Seriously.

Having a broad palette of writing skillsets is SUPER-beneficial. Write stories and songs and book reviews and expository reports and letters to long-lost friends... You'll be surprised by how many of these circles overlap in the Venn diagram origami matrix of writing fiction!
