Goodreads asked Alan Emmins:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Alan Emmins Getting it written

Even when I have planned to write I sometimes find it hard to get my backside in the seat. Often, in the beginning, I am in and out of the seat. I forgot the milk for my coffee. My pencil needs sharpening. At some point, though, and it never takes long, I drop into the writing and time just runs away.

So sit down, strap in and get on with it!
