Goodreads asked Claire D. Simone:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Claire D. Simone Persevere, find your trigger and do not listen to negative advice. Yes, there are a lot of obscure writers out there, and an awful lot of books that will never really take off (mine is probably in that category), but it doesn't mean you should just give up on the idea.
There is nothing more satisfying than seeing your book for sale. It gives you a tremendous sense of achievement.
