Any tips for a 1st time fiction writer?

Hey guys!

So I'm starting to write seriously creatively for the first time in my life. I've done some world building and character development and am confident I have everything I need to begin typing out my tale.

I would appreciate any tips you veterans might have for me, about any aspect of the possible journey that lies ahead.

Cheers!

How well do you refine your world and character bibles before starting to actually write?

Hi guys!

I'm writing my first work of fiction, and it's an ambitious one! I'm currently caught up in world building and character development before actively writing the books (I have some fragments written and the general outline of it all mapped out). My doubt is whether I'll ever feel like this preparatory work is enough to start writing, without turning my perfectionism into a sophisticated form of procrastination. So essentially, when do I know I have enough base material to start writing and let the story itself give me some of the details?
