Gemma MacDonald asked Alice Oseman:

I love writing but I never know if I'm actually good at it. What makes a good writer and how can I know if I'm good enough?

Alice Oseman That's really an impossible question, because there are an infinite number of things that can make a writer 'good', and what qualifies as 'good writing' is often different according to different people. Writing is an art! It's subjective! All you can do is be passionate about what you're writing and hope that other people might be too.
