Goodreads asked Beth Anne Campbell:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Beth Anne Campbell Discipline yourself to write on a regular basis.

Set a timer, schedule time, whatever you need to do to have your butt in the chair (or couch or bed) and put words on paper or your laptop, a notepad, a typewriter, whatever...just write. The rest of it will come and you will learn.

Stop thinking about everything. Stop worrying about all your characters and plot lines. That will come. For now...just write, every day, even if it's a gratitude journal or a shopping list.
