Goodreads asked Chris Ledbetter:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Chris Ledbetter READ... a LOT! And read widely in the genre within which you wish to write. But also don't be afraid to read outside of your target genre. And then... just sit down and pour your soul onto the page. And whatever you do... care nothing about your first draft. Just get words on the page. You can't revise a blank page.
