Goodreads asked Jeremy Zimmerman:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Jeremy Zimmerman I have two things I'd recommend.

The first is to just write. Regardless of where you feel you are in your path as a writer, if you aren't putting words down then nothing is getting written.

The second is to get rid of the word "aspiring". As far as I'm concerned: If you're writing, you're a writer. You might be working on getting a book published, writing your first novel, whatever. But you're still a writer even if you haven't crossed some milestone.
