Goodreads asked L.C. Hamilton:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

L.C. Hamilton Write. Just do it. Keep a journal. Write that short story. Write those poems. Keep notes. Just write! Editing and revising and publication cannot even begin to begin until you write that horrible first draft. The first draft is going to be terrible and that’s okay. You can’t fix something that doesn’t exist. So write. Write all the time. Even when you hate it. Especially when you hate it.
