My advice for aspiring writers is just to keep writing and enjoy it while there are no rules. You can start at any point in a book, not just the beginning. Don't worry about grammar or prose, just get your story written.
Then, when you have the words down, that's the point to shape it into something that looks like a finished book.
The editing can become a form of meditation if you approach it positively.
