Hi Anisha,
Set small goals. Finish a page, a chapter, a book. It's pretty daunting at first so try not to get overwhelmed. Then, when you finish one project, start on the next. Don't give up. And read. Read what you want to write but read other genres too. It all helps stimulate your creativity. :)
Good luck!

I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?
