Subject: Common First Author Mistakes - What are they, and are there SF speficic ones?

I was reading one of the Locus First Novel threads, and LWE said:

<i>I can report that
at least one person I trust says it's got all your standard
first-novel problems and isn't very good.</i>

And I was wondering, what are these problems?  The only one I can
think of is the 'kitchen sink' problem, where every cool idea the
author's ever had shows up in one book, but I'm sure there's more.
Are there any sfnal specific first novel problems?
