Goodreads asked James Gilmartin:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

James Gilmartin Write what you love and enjoy. Do not feel pressured to write in a certain way or for a particular audience. Master your craft. Experiment and play with words. Do not settle on your first or second idea. Brainstorm and develop multiple ideas. Remember to step away from a story when it makes you insane. A little break is good for the soul and creativity.
