Goodreads asked Eric K. Goodman:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Eric K. Goodman My advice for aspiring writers is to read, read and read some more. Read writers you admire and those you don't. Sometimes reading bad writing, especially from good writers, is empowering. Hey, you might think, that's a published author, and I can do better than that.

And of course, to be a writer, you need to write. Try to carve out some time every day: your writing time. And be ruthless and jealous of that time, or it will slip away.
