Well lets see here
Hey Songzman. I started when I was about 19 years old. My dad had played guitat for years. He was ok at covering other peoples stuff and had written some (not many) of his own songs.
After he passed away(when I turned 19) I decided to persue music. I decided I didn't want to wallow in mediocrity for years as he did. So I went and bought a book on lead guitar. That didn't work out so well though I did learn some general ideas of music theory and scales. I then took about 6 lessons. From that point on it just kinda came to me over time sort of like Alan said.
I know some music theory though for the most part I just emulate ideas I have heard before. These days I can write a song pretty much off the cuff without even thinking. I guess you could call it a gift ot a curse lol. Half the time I don't even remember them. I think everyone has their own journey in music though so good luck with yours!
