Goodreads asked Rati Mehrotra:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Rati Mehrotra Write, revise, get it beta-read by someone who is not your mother, revise, edit/polish, submit to suitable market, repeat. Work on more than one project at a time. Don't let rejection break your heart. Find your writing family.

Above all, write what you truly want to, and only if you find joy and satisfaction in the process.
