Goodreads asked Isabelle Gecils:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Isabelle Gecils The writing process is long, and there is so much uncertainty because you don't always know where your work will end up - on a bestseller list, or on the trash can... what has worked for me was just working on it a little bit at a time. I felt strongly about writing my story, but not too strongly about when, how and how long it would take. Some days I worked for hours, for many days, not at all. But at times, I would take a few minutes a day to write or edit. The most important point however is, if you have a story (or stories) within you, then don't give up.
