Katherine Hill’s Advice to New Writers

Read widely and deeply in your chosen genre—and also outside your genre—to figure out how other writers have done it. Seek out, mentors and fellow travellers. Be patient with yourself: Failure is an inevitable and necessary part of any artistic process. Learn who to listen to, and who not to listen to, which is an answer particular to you. Remember that in the end, it’s your work, and you get to decide how to make it.
