Goodreads asked Mandy Peterson:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Mandy Peterson I still see myself as an aspiring writer. My advice to you (and me) is write what you love and don't deviate. Also, keep in mind that every book has its reader. Not every reader is meant for your book and that's okay. Find those nuggets of constructive criticism and use them to improve your writing in the future. Also, find those that like your book and talk to them about their reading experience. It's absolutely fulfilling and those people get the 'behind the scenes' info.
