My advice for aspiring writers would be simply - just write.
Write about anything and everything. Write anywhere, anytime.
I always keep a little notebook handy - in my purse, by my bed, on the kitchen counter. When an idea comes to you write it down on anything you have, napkin, receipt, index card, anything - just get it down. You never know when that idea can transform from one single word to a sentence, then a paragraph, or even a short story. From there a whole novel is possible, and one idea triggers another. Keep writing!
