“The only way you can further your ability as a writer is to keep reading and keep writing. These are my five writing tips.
1) Carve out some time, at least an hour a day, preferably more.
2) Start. Keep going. Finish
3) Have some champagne.
4) Buy the Writers’ and Artists’ Yearbook and find some agents who represent writers you like. Send them a synopsis, three chapters and a friendly, unpretentious letter.
5) Keep sending it out for as long as you can bear it, taking on board any advice given to you in rejection letters. Advice in rejection letters is a good thing.”
