Writing a novel is not as hard as people say it is. Just let the characters speak to you and do what they want to do. Characters are funny. Just when you think you know a character, she'll surprise you with something unexpected. And you'll go, oh, I didn't know she was going to do that! These are the moments that make it all worth it. Make sure you wake up at the same time every morning, grab a cup of joe (I know I need it!), take a seat in your favorite chair, and let the magic happen.

Tips: Don't make characters/interactions drab and get a editor, they will catch things you will never see.

How much have you written before? You need practice to get any good.
