I would highly recommend reading Code Complete 2 by Steve McConnell.

Awesome suggestion, thank you.

From scanning through the Chapter on design I got this quote: "This paradox implies, essentially, that you have to 'solve' the problem once in order to clearly define it and then solve it again to create a solution that works."

It reminds me of advice I have gotten from someone before, write code to solve a problem then scrape it and rewrite it.
