Goodreads asked R.R.S.:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

R.R.S. Write the book you want to read! And if you're writing and finding yourself getting bored, give the project at least three chances to redeem itself before you give up and start another entirely. Try changing around character genders or social class, the structure of the society, the point of view or tense you're writing from, etc. Read as much as you can and read whatever the heck you want because it helps develop your skills and exposes you to all sorts of styles and ideas.
