It's funny you should ask. Just write. You figure everything else out along the way and it's an incredible ride to be able to manipulate words, molding them into the image that you've created inside your own mind. To add texture, a scent, a taste, a feeling and share that experience with everyone and anyone who can relate, its magical.
However, for value's sake, the one piece I wish someone would have shared with me is to submit your work for reviews prior to publishing.
Bottom line is that once it's published: Lots of people read but few review. I'm just as guilty.

I don't know when it began. It might have crept in slowly, unnoticed at first, but now it won't leave.

Sometimes I miss the drama, but not my drama. Sometimes I crave the uncomfortable, but not my uncomfortable. Writing is similar to reading, in that it allows me to escape outside of my everyday revolving door to experience something phantasmal. Creating a fantasy commissions emotion, imagery, and vicarious experiences that can be as simple or complicated as my yearn for escape desires. The best thing? Its the glimpse into possibilities and impossibilities.
