Lisa Samson (Advice for Novelists, Part 60)

Today we're featuring the 60th entry in our Advice for Novelists series! For those new here, I've asked authors, agents, editors and publicists their response to the question:

"If you could say one thing to aspiring novelists, what would you say?"

Lisa Samson enlightens us today with this response:

My advice is really, really simple: Read well. Read at least five great books for every writing how-to book. Read the top quality writers in your genre. Don't waste time reading books you could have written with your present level of expertise.

--Lisa Samson, author of Embrace Me, the Hollywood Nobody series, and much more. Visit her online at her website here.
