Make time to write. It may sound like an obvious thing but it is so important. When I first started writing I spent a lot of time reading about how to write and whilst many of those books were helpful, the best way to learn the craft is to actually write!
Set yourself some targets, start small and hit those targets. Then set yourself slightly more challenging targets! Never give up. The more you right, the more you will learn about writing. And make sure that what you are writing excites you. Don't try and copy the latest big thing, aim to be the next big thing!
