Goodreads asked Daniel Varona:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Daniel Varona Never rush the process. From my standpoint, me writing out all four books of my Cycle of Eden series before publishing the first book was a huge benefit. This allows you to make your world more concrete by connecting dots and details you wouldn't have if you worked on one novel at a time. For me, drafting out timelines also expanded the world building and growth that led to more ideas. Another huge component I used when writing was using Music to my advantage. Listening to music really helps convey and evoke whatever emotion you are looking for in a scene. For example, getting yourself in a sad mood isn't healthy, but using more melancholy music can put you in a space to better describe a scene.
