Lessons learned from completing a novel:
1. I can do. I love doing it.
2. Format as you go. Everything. Paragraphs, page numbers, headings, italics. Don't think you'll do it later. Because when you have 70K or more, and you've done your revisions, edits, and more edits, and you think now you are ready to submit the novel, all these things that you thought were little and easy, well, they are there to kill you! Trust me.
Even though I felt silly starting my new, barely-there novel, with an official title page, I did it anyway. Better early, than sorry.
