Goodreads asked Vishal Reddy:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Vishal Reddy My advice is simple: keep at it. I had been writing on and off for decades yet never managed to finish an entire book. So I gave myself a deadline to finish my first book, HIGHER GROUND. I worked on it like it was a 9-5 job, poring over every single word and sentence until I felt I had written the best book I could.

I felt a great sense of relief and pride over finishing it. And much like any major task, the first time is the hardest. But now that I finished one, I know the next dozen will be no problem at all.

So that's the key: just do it.
