I know just about every author says this, but read, read, read! Especially read books in the genre you want to write. Both bad books and good books can be good learning experiences. Reading good books shows you how to do it right...reading bad books shows you what mistakes to avoid. If you are planning to publish your writing, make revision your best friend. A great story can be ruined by lack of editing.
