Welcome James from San Antonio.
Check out the Woodcraft stores in your area for classes and see if you can find a woodturning club. There are usually some pen turners in the group and most are more than willing to help get you started.
Also, check out the IAP Forum Library. You will get tired reading before you can possibly get through all the information.
Have fun - we all do!!
