Goodreads asked Laura Snider:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Laura Snider Never give up. Even if you have received 100 rejection letters. If you love writing, do it for yourself. Maybe it won't go to print, maybe it will, but at least you created something and enjoyed yourself along the way.

Never stop learning. I don't mean formal classes, although those can help. I mean that you should learn by reading. Read widely, not just books from one genre. Read diversely. Read fiction and nonfiction. Read newspaper articles. Read everything and anything.
