Courtnye H.:
If you can give one piece of advice for first
time writers, be it poetry or novel writing,
what would it be?
Melanie P. Falina:
I'd say just keep writing. If you write two pages
and you're afraid that they need tons of editing
and rework just keep writing and stay out of your
ego. There'll be time for fine-tuning later, but just
keep writing.
Courtnye H.:
What was some of the best advice you were ever
given when you wrote your first local-inspired
book of poetry?
Melanie P. Falina:
Honestly, I'm not sure that anyone gave me advice
when I was writing my first collection. LOL. But
one of the things that I kept in mind was that writing
is a lot like exercising. The more often you do it the
easier it gets, the more progress you make, so I just
kept telling myself that. Just keep working those
creative muscles.
