Just... write. But only write about things you love, otherwise you won't like writing anymore. My brother's name is Peter, and his middle name his Lee. So, he's a Peter L. too.  Anyway, just write and write and write until you have heaps of pencil shavings and bits of paper scattered over everything. Or, if you prefer computers, type and type until you get blisters on all your finger tips. Personally, I think scribbling things out by hand is more romantic, though dreadfully time consuming. (I am the first to comment again. Something must be changing within me.)
