Goodreads asked Christopher Draven:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Christopher Draven Do it! While I'm no expert, I have been so pleased with the interactions I've had from readers.

Develop a sense of transparency in your ego and attitude. Receive feedback, and yes even criticism with grace. Don't let YOU get in the way of readers seeing the story. Remember that you are writing to share your imagery and thoughts with others. It makes no sense that you would do anything to stand in the way of that happening.
