Hi, i'm starting write a book about horses. This is my first time ever writing one so I was wondering if you have any advice. What would you recommend doing?

Hi Alyssa!
My tips for you are to write and read regularly! Stories are easier to start than to finish, so practice finishing your stories. And write your first drafts all the way through without editing or judgement. Once the story is completed, then go back and revise it. Don't worry about creating perfect sentences, just try to nail down the complete story first. Then revise it until the story makes sense and isn't confusing. Then polish the sentences last! I hope this is helpful advice for you!
