Goodreads asked Stephanie M. Allen:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Stephanie M. Allen Don't set a goal of becoming the next J. K. Rowling or Stephenie Meyer. Write because you have stories that you want to share with the world. Don't write the current trends in the literary world. Write your passion. Find inspiration in the world around you or draw from your own experiences in life. Give your characters realistic traits. You'll be amazed at the outcome when you put yourself into your characters.
