Goodreads asked Denise Drespling:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Denise Drespling Just write. That's how you be a writer. How you be a good writer is totally different.

Get critique partners and read blogs and books on writing. Learn and follow all the rules before you think about breaking them. Read everything. Try every method and suggestion out there until you know what works for you in your writing life. Write and write some more. When you're done, edit it until you can't stand the sight of it anymore. Put it aside, then edit it more.
