Goodreads asked Nafiza Azad:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Nafiza Azad Read! Read different kinds of books. Read books that make you feel out of your depth. Read books that you fall in love with. Read books that reveal all the secrets in you. Read books that make you feel angry, happy, sad, and dangerous. Glut yourself on words and stories, fill yourself up. And then when you are full of stories, go and write one down. And continue writing every day no matter how what the world tells you. Don't let anyone get you down. Your stories are important.
