Goodreads asked M.A. Barrett:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

M.A. Barrett Find your own way. I spent far too many years listening to industry experts. Learn to write a good story. Hone that story by yourself or with the help of trusted writers/readers. Find a way to put it out into the world. Pay an editor to help you.

Do like Ani DiFranco does.
