Goodreads asked Amanda J. Nassar:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Amanda J. Nassar My advice to aspiring writers is to never doubt yourself! It took me ten years to finish Upon Blue Mountain, I went through high school, different part time jobs, college, and ultimately growing up, many distractions to say the least! But no matter what I went through, my passion was always invested in this story, and it was my biggest dream to one day publish it. It is important to never give up on yourself, and if you have doubts, understand that it is only because you care so much about your work, for it is a part of you! Just push through it, and know that only you can make your dreams come true.
