I polled my writer friends and collected their advice they wish they knew when they started writing.
The answers may surprise you (hint: it's not learn how to spell better).

#WritingTip: If you're stuck and you don't know what happens next:
#Fantasy- add a dragon or curse.
#Romance- Trap them in a room together. Make them kiss. #Mystery or #Horror- Kill a character.
#Other- Throw a party.
Works every time.

I started writing stories 8 years ago, after being made redundant from my previous job.

Since then, the ideas have kept coming.
