Goodreads asked Meghan Palmer:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Meghan Palmer My advice to aspiring writers is the same as anyone else's, but with an addendum: you have to write, and write, and write. It doesn't matter how. You can type, or use your phone (I don't personally enjoy writing on my phone). You can use a pen and paper. BUT you also have to fail. You have to write a lot of bad stuff before (or even in between) the good stuff. The blood you pour out onto the ground is just as important as the battles you win. Failure teaches you how to win, in combat as in writing!
