I would suggest that you look into "test-driven development". Whenever you need to write a callable routine start by writing the test, and first then write the code which does what the test requests, then add more tests and more code, with the continous goal that all tests pass.

This naturally includes error checking for bad input :)

For me, this has two very visible advantages - you design from "above" instead from "beneath" giving cleaner code, and the unit tests document your code afterwards!
