Are you killing your story's tension?
Tension: The anticipation of what will happen next in the story.
1. Don't make things too easy for your hero. Let your hero struggle through obstacles and even lose battles.
2. Don't let all your characters get along all the time. Let your characters fight, dislike and mistrust one another.
3. Don't resolve all your conflicts too early. Introduce new conflicts as others are resolved.
