Depending on your closeness, I'd say be observant of their non-writing needs. There's so, so many stressors in modern life, and all that gets in the way of writing.
Paying attention to people's struggles and trying to reduce those burdens where possible is huge.

I forgot to mention part 19 of Observations Among Thieves and Other Vermin is up on the site.
I can't say exactly when the next part will be up because I have more drafting to do, but I think this is a good place to pause for how long it will be before I post the next part.

What an appalling choice by the publisher to submit gen AI covers for their authors' books to a CONTEST, and I'm glad the awards pushed back against the use of gen AI and disqualified them. Heartbroken for the authors who didn't know, though.
