Bruce; Thank you for the time that you took to answer my question.
I am sure that you are a very very nice person, and that you mean very very well.. Unfortunately I am not 100% capable of getting your message, since the way you write comes across very.. condescending.
You do not have to do anything with this comment, I understand that it is the way I perceive you, and therefore my "issue" and not yours, but I thought you might value the feedback. Please ignore me if you don't.
On the rest of your post:

I know I was not very clear about my terms and personality etc. That is because the actual improving and where I want to go is not really the issue at the moment. The issue is that I cannot seem to get started. When I can get started I can start getting down those terms etc.

I didn't say I was a writer. I am not. In order to be a writer, you actually have to write...
and there is my problem. I don't do that..
I know that when (if?) I start writing, I will have a lot to learn if ever I want other people to read what I wrote. But for now, and the nearby future, I just like to write for the writing, for myself. To put all the stories in my head on paper, to make them great, to create the worlds as I would see them. To create as I would not see them...
To have fun. To explore "what if.."
But thank you for the how to write links. I will bookmark them and have a look at them later.
Thank you as well for not being to tough on me because you as well "knew no better". Happy that you do now
I can only aspire to your greatness one day...
