Goodreads asked Sarah Stewart Taylor:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Sarah Stewart Taylor Read a lot. Don't be afraid to write terribly. First drafts are meant to be messy and incomplete and they're the only road to a finished draft. But so many aspiring writers give up when they can't achieve perfection the first time they sit down to write a novel.
