i should start by saying (with absolutely no malicious intent) i wish i could go back 2 when i was 18, and knew everything!
but i won't.
or i could say (with absolutely no malicious intent) get a life, and get a job!
but i won't.
i will say good 4 u!
however, such an ambitious project will consume your life 4 some time, and u must b prepared.
there are many writing workshops on the
internet; i suggest u do a search, and investigate until u find 1 that suits your personality, and ?'dig in'.
secondly u will have 2 compile a wealth of information, and background data to support your theories if you wish 2b taken seriously (a must if u expect 2 publish).
then u should express your ideas in point form (preferably written in a small note book that u can carry with u at all times and jot down ideas) so that u can begin 2 formulate an approach; order, format, chapters, headings, references, etc.
and u must come up with a style that u will use; something that is new and unusual (2 attract attention) and in keeping with the topic (a touch of genius would be nice) so that your work will stand out from the ?'crowd' of new work competing 4 attention.
try ?'
http://www.wfs.org/ ' (they have an excellent monthly newsletter) for example and search out similar sites to compile new ideas and ways of thinking.
good luck (except that it isn't going 2b ?'luck' that u need!)
