Goodreads asked Jacqueline E. Smith:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Jacqueline E. Smith Don't give up. Believe in yourself and what you are doing. Enjoy the process and enjoy the work. Be persistent and be patient. Believe you are good enough. Don't get discouraged by what other people think or say. And write for yourself. Don't write to please someone else. Write what you would want to read. Write because it's what you love to do. And join GoodReads.
