The most important thing we learned from writing our first novel was to plan it out.
It's probably the least fun part of the creative process, but having your ideas mapped out from the beginning will help you avoid writing yourself into a corner, or worse, having to go back and re-write the first half of your book (like we did).
Also, having bullet points to guide where you'd like your story to be, helps you fill in the juicy middle bits.
