Goodreads asked Scott De Buitléir:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Scott De Buitléir It may sound simple, but just write! Write whenever you like, whenever you get the inspiration, and whenever you have the time. If you get an idea for a new story or just the next chapter, but don't have the time to indulge yourself at that moment, take a note of it on your phone to remind yourself later. Creative writing is never meant to be a stress or chore; if it does, give yourself a break for as long as you need, until you can return to the pen or keyboard refreshed.
