Goodreads asked Maggie Plummer:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Maggie Plummer I think an aspiring writers needs to be teachable, humble, and open to suggestions. Years ago I was in a writers' group in which one member had a lot of potential, but never progressed in her writing because she would not listen to group members' feedback. The critiques were constructive, thoughtful, and specific, but she would get defensive instead of listening. My advice to aspiring writers is to open their minds and shove their egos aside.
