Just write. Do it. Noone has to see your first draft. Noone even has to see your story anytime if you don't want to. Just write. If there's a story in you head, then go and tackle that thing down. Don't care about how great it should be to be a bestselling novel. Write for yourself, because you're your first audience. You have to like the idea, the story, the characters. Only practice will make you better, will make you a "master" of this kinda art. It's like in every field of art. With practice there comes great stuff. So just sit down and get shit done, that's the way I'm writing since the age of 13.

Writer's block? That's the reason why I keep working on multiple WIPs. If I'm stuck in the story of one, I turn to another WIP and working there. So I don't really experience that thing called writer's block. Sometimes it's a bit harder to write, but that depends more on my everyday life and the surroundings than on the actual writing itself.
