Back when I worked in video games, there would inevitably be groups of high school kids brought through on a tour. They would ask how to get into games and I’d always say “be interested in literally anything else”

I suspect that’s good advice for any creative endeavor. There was a kerfuffle in the writing community recently because someone had the audacity to tell prospective writers that they need to read, and read widely, in order to write well. Life experience is a big plus, too.
