Goodreads asked Delwyn Jenkins:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Delwyn Jenkins Get hooked into a professional association. As a romance writer, Romance Writers of Australia have been instrumental in my road to publication - not just helping me improve technically, but making friends and contacts in the industry. Every genre/style has a similar group. Also, if you want to write fiction, you need to be prepared to learn. Go to classes, read books, get into critiquing groups. I've been to workshops where career professional, multi published authors sit down and take page after page of notes. We're always learning.
