Writing a psychological mystery

Hey everyone. I’m 15, and this is my first time ever trying to write a book. I’ve genuinely never written more than a few paragraphs before, so this whole thing is very new to me.

Right now I’m working on a psychological mystery story. I want it to feel tense, unsettling, and emotionally uncomfortable rather than just full of twists for the sake of twists. I’m especially interested in suspense, hidden meanings, unreliable characters, and scenes that slowly make the reader question what’s actually happening.

Since I’m a complete beginner, I’d really appreciate advice from writers or readers who enjoy psychological mysteries/thrillers. I’m trying to learn early so I don’t build bad habits while writing the story.

Some things I’d especially love help with:

\\- Common mistakes beginner mystery writers make

\\- How to keep suspense without revealing too much

\\- How to foreshadow clues without making them obvious

\\- Things that accidentally ruin tension or pacing

\\- How to make dialogue feel natural and meaningful

\\- Tips for writing disturbing or eerie scenes without overdoing them

\\- Ways to keep readers curious enough to continue chapters

One thing I’m struggling with is balancing mystery and confusion. I want readers to feel intrigued, not lost. I also don’t want to “kill” the suspense by explaining things too early or adding twists that feel forced.

I’d honestly appreciate any feedback, warnings, writing tips, or even book recommendations that could help me improve. I know I’m very inexperienced, but I’m taking this seriously and really want to grow as a writer.

Thanks for reading.
