Observe. Experience. Read. Write.
If you aspire to write you probably already have something to say.
What will it be based on?
The more acute your senses and your emotional intelligence is the better you will be able to fill out your worlds with credible characters and landscapes.
Do things, travel, take strange jobs. They can fill out your stories with unparalleled richness of detail.
Read good authors. You will learn from the very best.
Most critical of all is to write and write and write. Don't be afraid to write crap. Take chances and forge ahead. I've known way too many brilliant writers who don't write a damn thing.
