Goodreads asked R.A. McCandless:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

R.A. McCandless Build a time machine. Travel forward in time to where your book has become an international best-seller. Buy a copy and return. Sell that book.

I understand not everyone can afford a Mr. Fusion and a DeLorean these days, so barring that, write. Write, write, and write some more. Pick up Mr. King's book "On Writing" and read it. Then write again. Keep writing until you have a draft completed.
