Goodreads asked L.J. McDonald:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

L.J. McDonald If you want to write, you have to write. Even if it's just for a few minutes at a time. If you keep saying you'll do it later when you have more time, you'll never get to it. A book written a paragraph at a time is still a book.

Also, don't expect instant perfection. First drafts are supposed to be crap.
