Use your best ideas. Write them as well as you can.

Yes, your writing will improve with experience.

And your ideas will also improve with experience.

If you reserve your "best ideas" until you're a better writer, then your early stories will exhibit neither your best ideas nor your best writing. Why hamper yourself like that?

Sometimes people love great stories even if the writing is somewhat clumsy. Use your best ideas. Give people a chance to love your story even as you gain writing experience.

Writing your best ideas will keep you motivated, and that will make your writing better. Maybe not as good as it will be, but as good as it can be for now.

Don't worry about wasting a great idea. You will have more great ideas. Plenty of them. There is no need to hold back.

Use your best ideas. Write them as well as you can.
