The first, the most important thing, that new writers must learn is to finish their works.
A blank page does not begin a story. A blank page does not continue a story and a blank page cannot end a story.
It's really hard sometimes, just getting the words down. And often that first draft is ugly. But you know what? Once an idea has been written, it can be cleaned up, polished, and maybe published.
A book that hasn't been started, or more importantly, hasn't been finished, has zero chance of being published.
