I'm trying to learn programming with zero experience too, and highly recommend book "Learn to Program" (http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/). It was worth every hour even while my goal is to learn JS and book based on Ruby. Now I'm reading JS book with much better understanding of basic things.

Also, "Ship It!: A Practical Guide to Successful Software Projects" (http://www.pragprog.com/titles/prj/ship-it) gave me a good understanding of development process. I think it's worth to read even if you are going to work on project alone.
