Goodreads asked Rachael Ritchey:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Rachael Ritchey Don't get caught up in the old adage: write what you know. As nice as that is, you will almost always find you know practically nothing in this world. Instead, write what you want to know, write what your mind is desperate to say. The whole 'write what you know' will spring out of your creativity.
