Goodreads asked Sandy Simon:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Sandy Simon Find a subject you know something about, then make a list of 12 chapters (if a book.) Writing anything whether a book, article or a simple story needs a strong first sentence, an idea where you are going, and NEVER GIVE UP! They say the difference between an author and a writer is that "an Author is a writer who didn't quit."
