There's an old saying in the game (I first heard it from a wise old editor in my first week earning the daily bread as a pro writer forty-six years ago): "If you can discourage anyone from writing, it's your duty to do so."
Think about the real meaning of that by concentrating on the first three words": If you can ..." Because if you can't, the wannabe will be. And s/he's the one to encourage to the hilt. Bestests. Neil
