Goodreads asked C.J. Walters:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

C.J. Walters Read resource books in the genre you are trying to write in (The Fantasy Fiction Formula by Deborah Chester was a life saver for me). Craft your story around what you learn. Then, hire professionals. While the cost can be a deterrent, a good developmental editor, a copy editor, and a cover artist can take your novel to the best level possible.
