My advice to aspiring writers is threefold: write, read and find a tactful mentor.
Writing every day—even when inspiration feels scarce—sharpens your voice and makes the craft second nature. Reading broadly opens your mind to different rhythms, styles and perspectives and helps you define your interests. A mentor who balances honest feedback with genuine encouragement will help you push beyond your comfort zone without crushing your enthusiasm.
