Goodreads asked Jan English Leary:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Jan English Leary Work as regularly as you can, read extensively, listen to readers whose opinions you trust. For those writers who have what they feel are finished, polished pieces, send them out to several places and try not to let rejection slow you down. Research small journals that appear to be open to new writers and submit, submit, submit.
