Goodreads asked Rebecca Addison:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Rebecca Addison Read widely, not just in your genre but all different types of books. Read poetry, listen to music and try to find time in silence at some point throughout your day. Go outside. These are the things from which ideas grow. Once you have your idea write every day. Don't think too much when you're writing, try not to overanalyse it. A first draft is all about feeling, not perfection. In fact, let go of the idea of perfection in your writing now, because it doesn't exist and will just make the journey harder.
