Goodreads asked Barry Stewart Levy:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Barry Stewart Levy Read a lot. And write often. Keep a daily log of the day, date and times you begin and finish writing. Even if it's just for ten minutes. Do it again after taking a break. Then total up the minutes and hours. Do this a week at a time. If you like, set a daily goal for yourself, say two hours. Total up those minutes and hours for the week. You'll have tangible proof that you've, at the very least, made an effort to write.
