Goodreads asked Barbara Neville:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Barbara Neville Read, watch, listen, and most important write! Nothing works better than writing, I jot down words, sentences, plot ideas and whole scenes as they come to me. Then I put it all together and flesh it out into a book. A software like Scrivener is extremely helpful. I use it as a digital filing cabinet as my ideas don't come in the final sequence of the book. I can lay out the virtual index cards and sort them infinitely easier than their paper predecessors.
