Goodreads asked Chantel Rhondeau:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Chantel Rhondeau Keep writing and have fun. Sometimes it is hard until you figure out what you should be writing (I wanted to write fantasy books since I love to read them, but it just didn't work out for me).

After you figure that out, join a great critique group (there is a great one for free at www.critiquecircle.com) and get all the help you can. Even after writing for a while, you'll be surprised how much you can learn from fellow writers.

Also, bad reviews only sting for a little bit, so don't let fear stop you! Chase that dream and get it!
