Honestly, I know this is the most annoying advice, but you have to keep writing. Most of us who are published didn't get a book deal with the first book we ever wrote (my debut is my fifth full length novel). The best way to become a better writer is by writing and reading. Find good beta readers and critique partners, read books in your genre, and just keep writing!
