Goodreads asked Tim Newton Anderson:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Tim Newton Anderson Write. Then put it down for a while until you have forgotten it enough to come to it fresh and revise it. The show it to someone who doesn't take any bullshit who will tell you what is wrong with it. Then revise it again. In the meantime write other stuff - ideally trying out different styles. And repeat the process with all of them.
