What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Lorel Clayton Learn the craft and take yourself seriously. I could have been a published author much sooner if I hadn't treated it as a hobby. I had a lot to learn - and do - but there are essentials of the craft you need to master, and there are no shortcuts.
