Goodreads asked M.J. Hudon:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

M.J. Hudon There are a thousand + books, memes, blogs, etc. with advice but so far the best thing I've seen was one of the simplest. "The only thing your first draft has to do is exist."
If anyone were to see my first draft of "Waxing is Useless" they'd never recognize it. The story, the characters, the plot, everything grew and morphed over the years, so even if you think what you are writing is crap, keep writing it.
