Goodreads asked David Clegg:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

David Clegg Work. Practice. Get feedback and listen to it. When you want to look at being published, don't turn your nose up at small publishers or "indie presses," these will often give new writers a chance where the Big Four and larger companies won't.
