Just write as much as you can, make the time to write and find your own voice. Write the kind of book you would love to read.

I would also advise writers to connect with other writers, whether in real life or on the internet. Being part of a community of writers can be incredibly supportive and encouraging.(less)

Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I’ll be lucky if he even lets me stay in the same house. I don’t think he’ll be inviting me to share his bed anytime soon.”
Clodagh Murphy, A Merry Irish Christmas

“Okay, spuds – there’ll be roast, mash and croquettes,’ she said, tapping her notebook. ‘Any other kind you’d like?’ ‘Three types of potatoes?’ ‘Welcome to Ireland.”
Clodagh Murphy, A Merry Irish Christmas

“Well, now’s your chance to bust those stereotypes and experience the real Ireland. It’s not all twinkly eyed leprechauns dancing jigs and having drunken brawls, you know.”
Clodagh Murphy, A Merry Irish Christmas
