Goodreads asked Alysia Constantine:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Alysia Constantine Read. Lots. It helps to inspire, to motivate, and to stretch you. Plus, it strikes me as rather self-indulgent to write without reading what other people are writing. There's always going to be writers who do something you can't do, from whom you can absorb and learn.

I would also suggest that there's no such thing as an "aspiring" writer--there are people who write and people who don't. So, write.
