Goodreads asked Patrick Moore:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Patrick Moore As an aspiring writer myself, I'm always learning and growing in my craft. I've written three non-fiction books, but "Shadow's Grasp" is my first attempt at fiction. My advice for aspiring writers is to stick with it and find a way to stay motivated. Writing takes time and effort, and it won't get done if you don't work at it. Set achievable goals for yourself and try to write every day, even if it's just for a few minutes. Celebrate small successes along the way to keep yourself motivated. It's also important to read widely and to seek out constructive feedback on your work from other writers or professionals. Don't be afraid to make mistakes or try new things, and don't be discouraged by rejection. Every writer faces rejection at some point, but it's important to keep pushing forward and to keep improving your craft.
