Goodreads asked Susan Pease Banitt:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Susan Pease Banitt Write from your heart. Use the active voice. Craft interesting sentences. Deal with your nerves creatively. I like to pretend that I have a lit cigarette and glass of whisky near my computer (although I do not use either substance). Make room for inspiration.
