Goodreads asked Michael R. Stern:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Michael R. Stern If you want to write, by all means, do. I've been told to pick a genre. Nonsense. Find out what you like to write, try different things. Read, read and read some more. Write something every day if you can. If you get stuck, write something else. Expect nothing. You can never be disappointed. But you can be surprised when people you don't know say they like what you've written.
