Goodreads asked Matthew Mercer:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Matthew Mercer Just write. Honestly, if you don't ever write anything, you will not learn how to properly do it. I spent too many years trying to develop the perfect story when I had zero experience in the field. Write something and understand that it will likely be trash, but at least you've done something. You can figure out the perfect story later, but at least figure out the basics first.
