Goodreads asked P. Tempest:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

P. Tempest Don't do it for money or praise. Do it because it is what you want, or need.

That aside, any advice I give is going to mean next to nothing to you. Everybody is different and asking advice is fine but you need to find your own way. My methods may not work for you.
Be prepared to fail. Its okay. Learn from it and take that new knowledge into your next work.
