And read a lot. Reading really helps. Read anything you can get your hands on. J. K. Rowling

There it must be, I think, in the vast and eternal laws of matter, and not in the daily cares and sins and troubles of men, that whatever is more than animal within us must find its solace and its hope. H. G. Wells
