Goodreads asked Stephen Strutt:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Stephen Strutt Be INSPIRED about what YOU like to talk about, or to write about. Find a way to get your inspiration, as it is different for different people. I like climbing mountains and hills, and looking at the beautiful nature to get my inpiration. Once I'm inspired, I feel like I could write about ANYTHING.
You need to like writing. As one other author has succinctly stated on this Goodreads Site, practice writing 15 minutes every day, trying different topics, just for the practice. I am also a pianist, and practicing piano 15 minutes/day keeps my musical talents in shape, and the same is true with writing, until it becomes second nature to you. Enjoy!
