Goodreads asked Gillian Henriques:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Gillian Henriques Write.lol! Sometimes we procrastinate a lot and say we want to do something, and then we wait for the conditions to be favorable. Don't wait just get to writing. It's not an easy road, but it is definitely enjoyable. You have to enjoy your work first before you can expect others to. When I write I get totally lost in the story. I laugh, I cry, I identify with the characters and I enjoy them. If I am not writing a fiction eg. If I am writing a devotional or writing on a specific topic, then I speak to my readers. I speak to them like I would want someone to speak to me. I counsel, I advise, I have compassion for, I understand, I encourage, I motivate, I love and I am honest about my feelings.

The next advise I will give you is to never give up. Sometimes getting your work out there for people to see it is not easy, but keep at it and never give up on your dreams.
