Goodreads asked Patricia Yager Delagrange:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Patricia Yager Delagrange The best and most helpful advice I have for aspiring writers is to hire an editor after you have done the most you can do with your book. The first book I ever wrote looks nothing NOW like it did after I wrote "The End" after I finished it. Once I hired an editor it metamorphosed into a real book that was able to be published with my name on it. My first editor literally taught me how to write well. I am forever in her debt. I also took and still take online writing classes. They are and will always be helpful.
