Write. Write. Write. Rely on the strategies that got you through your short stories. Find a couple plays, and look at how they worked. They should at least give you some ideas to generate the larger structure of a play.

Poetry is dead. Post some of your short stories.

Jesus, if you're a writer then I hope English is not your first language

Set aside a time that you can spend writing everyday.

Maybe an hour when you wake up or an hour before you go to bed.

Never miss a day.

If you don't do this, you will not succeed as a writer.
No if's and's or but's about it.

are you german or does this idiom work in english?

OP here, i just made a basic outline describing the sinopsis and general theme. I also named and describe the characters and some basic locations.

I think that's enough for a fist day. Tomorrow i will expand the outline mark the conflict points and general arcs and connections, etc.

Then ill start writing the core dialog and action over the structure so i don't drift off.

A mastery of very basic English grammar and spelling might be considered a prerequisite for a would-be writer. (Can you spot the 23 separate errors in your post?)

The "no ifs, ands, etc" part? Yeah, people say that in English. I usually only hear it from older women, though. I'm not the anon you're replying to, if that matters
