Goodreads asked Richard Alan:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Richard Alan Run with inspiration, but remember your first draft is just the beginning. The words you wrote are not sacred. Neither is the arrangement of section or order of your story.

Read critically and to learn from other's writing.

If you haven't already, read about writing. Remember too, you're always on a learning curve.
