Goodreads asked Dave Mercel:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Dave Mercel Keep working it, keep dreaming. Just write and write and learn all the little things, and find yourself. It may stink, but I will get better, keep on trucking and have fun with it. I am finding that even after I think it's done, there are always some things that could be better, smoother. Reading my story 'Anubis Please Us' today I picked out a couple things I would change, and I probably will punch them up (ah, the digital age), but at some point it has to be done, move onto the next thing and be smooth there. I am learning every day, and loving it.
Also, read everything that can put a hand or an ear to. You can't go wrong with Neil Gaiman audiobooks.
