Where do you start...

I want to write. I want to be a writer. There I said it. Easier said than done. I haven’t the faintest clue as to why I don’t “Just write”. I’m scared, I’m lazy, and really don’t know how. I’ve taken classes on writing, I’ve read thousands of books. Yet when I sit down at the computer I just don’t know where to start. What type of book do I want to write? Do I want to write a book or a screen play or what? I’m not sure. I’ve got ideas yet I have no clue. I hate my professional life. I want to write and create, not sit at a desk and do work for others. Life is to short. But how do you write? There are styles and techniques yet where do you start? I know that I want to write as a career. Maybe I should start an online publication. Maybe I should do freelance. Maybe I should just get my foot in the door some how, but where, how? Time to hit the intranets and find out I guess.

…where do you start?
