Goodreads asked Amber Albee Swenson:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Amber Albee Swenson When I was graduating from my university's creative writing program, one of my professors gifted me with a magazine article titled, "The talent of the room." The gist....if you're going to write, you're going to need to sit down and write. Writers write. That's what we do. Everything I publish goes through multiple versions. Rarely is the first draft remotely good. My advice to aspiring writers is to write. And write some more. Then write some more.
