Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

My advice for just starting out is to not worry too much about following all the right practices. The more important thing is to try the process start to finish of picking a topic, writing a draft, editing it, publishing it, and finding places to share it. I'd start with something narrowly scoped that you can explain in 2,000 words or less.

I suspect that just experiencing the process end-to-end will give you a better sense of what areas you struggle with, and it will help you prioritize what writing advice to seek out.
