Goodreads asked Kathleen O'Donnell:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Kathleen O'Donnell Learn the craft. Self publishing means anyone can publish a novel. Many are simply not publishable because the writer hasn't learned the craft. Take classes, read books on writing by authors you admire, join writer's groups. Pay for professional editing. Most importantly, write as often as you can.
