Goodreads asked Peter Stafford-Bow:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Peter Stafford-Bow Make sure you have some experience. Doesn’t matter what, you don’t need to gallop the Silk Route on camelback, pursued by enraged Uzbeks (though if you do, remember to stay hydrated, Kashgar is devilishly hot in summer). Do a job, talk to people, ask them about their lives. And read. (You didn’t need me to tell you that, surely…?)
