Hello Axie! I really love the lyrical voice that's always prevelant in your writing. Any personal tips for young writers starting out❤️?

Axie Oh Hi Mira!

When I was a young writer first starting out I wrote short "flash fiction" type pieces that were only 250-500 words of a small scene, and I would post them online or share them with my friends! This really helped me to establish early on what sort of voice I had for my writing. I also wrote short stories (2-5k words) while I was at university. I don't know if it was intentional, but I wanted to write stories that gave me the same feeling as some of my favorite authors (Patricia McKillip, Juliet Marillier, Robin McKinley), who are known for their lyrical voice and storytelling, so my authorial voice is influenced by theirs, as well!
