Get a good agent. Believe in what you're writing about. Decide whether you want to write fiction or non-fiction. (You can potentially change your mind later.) Read a lot of books and work out why you like some and dislike others. Don't worry if your day's work isn't exactly what you meant it to be. And enjoy it!
