I've been reading Steven King's book _On Writing_.  He pretty says to
read like crazy and write like mad.

I havne't taken any creative writing classes but I've gone to school
on my favorite authors and have surrounded myself with readers /
writers.  Then I started setting goals that were just a little outside
my current comfort level and doing whatever it takes to stretch and
grow.

Everybody's path is just a little different.  Maybe courses are what
you need, and maybe they aren't.  In the meantime, you can read and
write and see what comes of it.

Best wishes.  Now's a great time to be getting started.
