Goodreads asked Pearl R. Meaker:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Pearl R. Meaker Learn as much about marketing and promoting as you can as soon as you can. You'll need it! And, start being active here on Goodreads and other social networking sites as soon as you know you're writing a book. Make friends, they often become your readers. :-)

Find a good, reliable editor who you can work well with. Few things are worse than a good story ruined by a needless lack of good editing. Yes, readers will notice and will mention it in reviews.

Believe in yourself.
