How to start the writing part?

Deleting to not further the argument.

The point I would like to make is that there are many ways to learn, and many different ways people find success.

"Detesting" advice which some might find useful seems shortsighted.

Actually, Nancy Hansen is summing it up pretty well for me.

Remember that time I said:

(hint: it's one page back)



I know I do!

Was actually a mistake on my part, meant the ElspethCooper or whatever near the bottom. I read that a long time ago and that's why I remember it. Never knew about the argument before that.

Thanks everybody for all the wonderful advice. I will try to tone back my expectations on my work and let the words flow for a while before editing. I think I will try to switch between the main book and writing short stories in the world to practice both forms of storywriting. I will also try to get some sort of short story published here in not too long of a time.

I wish I could comment on all your replys because I've really read them and I will listen to them but to comment on each and every reply would only serve to clutter up the forum, so i thank you here and hope that i might be of some assistans to you in the future!
 
I already know where it will lead and most of the things the main characters will be doing, as well as some subplots etc. The problem isn't that i don't know what I want to write is the part about getting it down on paper that is frustrating. But i will try sometime to write a story without knowing the end to.

No what I'm saying is that is I could do that, then you can surely do the reverse, although I suppose that this largely misleading comment might be rendered redundant by the others.
