My former writing instructor, Kathy Tyers, told me that writing a novel is a "long slog." She was so right. It took much longer, and required much more effort than I ever expected. Writing requires tenacity and a mindset to never give up.
I suggest the following:
1. Run a marathon. It will teach you to never give up.
2. Read James Scott Bell's book entitled, Write Great Fiction: Plot & Structure
3. Read Nancy Kress' book entitled, Write Great Fiction: Characters, Emotion & Viewpoint.

1. Get rid of clutter (i.e., email, bills, newspapers, magazines, dishes, laundry, television)
2. Play familiar instrumental classical music. (Turn it off if it becomes a distraction.)
3. Keep a To Do list of changes you want to make, so you don't have to keep track of them in your head.
4. Exercise. Running works best for me.
