Goodreads asked B.C. Johnson:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

B.C. Johnson Read what you love, then write what you read. What genre will you ALWAYS read, no matter what? Write in that genre - it'll keep your energy up, plus nobody knows the cliches better than you. You can dodge those landmines and provide the reader with a truly unique experience.
