It's like skydiving.
As you get closer to the ground the story's details come into focus. You can see it all in front of you, but you wait for it to get closer.

I think I pulled the cord too soon.

I've had two articles published in the state's main newspaper on two separate occasions, so I'm pretty much the real deal.
First and foremost, have fun :). Find a writing suite that you enjoy and make sure that you're in a comfortable environment.
Try spitballing some ideas onto a page without real connection.If you have nothing, having it fleshed out is already a step in the right direction.
If it's intimidating, push writing your first sentence/paragraph or title aside for later when the concept is a bit more thought over.

I'm sure that everybody else on this forum is a published author.

The wording was a bit ambiguous, but I never called myself an author.
