If you want to write, be aware it isn't easy. There is a lot to learn plus, you need to have more than one idea for a story. Take those classes. Buy those books which help you. But...you need to sit down with the pad and pen or at the computer/laptop/tablet/phone and write.
90% of the people who want to write, never complete one project. They start and then quit. You need to be that 10% and complete what you start. That first draft is going to be horrible, but you can edit it after you are finished writing it.
Remember: 90% of the failures in life are those who have the habit of making excuses--George Washington Carver
So....stop the excuses and do it.

Hello B.A. I have quite often taken your advice/suggestions as you seem to know so much! (not a fake compliment!:) Would you mind me asking, have you ever used Book Buzz for marketing? They have a blitz special and I'm tempted yet know nothing about it. If not, I'll fish around some more. Thank you! Gail
