Goodreads asked G.B. Lindsey:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

G.B. Lindsey Learn the craft. Practice the craft. Perfect YOUR craft, for sure. But if you want publishing to be part of the deal, then don't overlook the other part of it: the technical how-to of marketing. It seems so complicated because new writers tend to know so little about it. I know; I was there. Take a class in the mechanics of publishing alongside your writing classes, introduce yourself to an agent and ask questions, talk to published writers about how it all works. The more you learn, the less overwhelming it all is.
