Advice for writers?
The more you do it, the better you become. Nothing improves your writing more than just sitting down and doing it.
And read, read, read. Explore the genre you plan to write in. Study and analyze what the really good authors are doing, and how they are doing it.
Oh, and to quote thriller author Michael Ridpath: Have fun.
