Ever dreamt of publishing your own novel?

Well! I've taken up novel writing hundreds of times..with ideas flooding my mind like anything! But then, writing means "writing". You can't just think up things and keep watching them inside your mind. You have to write them down so as not to miss those precious thoughts, and being as lazy as I am, I have left the effort with about two days after starting. Once, when I went to the extent of stretching the effort to a span of six days, I fell severely sick with high fever and had to rest for 2 weeks on bed. During those lonely days on my bed I thought what fun it would be if, say, thousands of people could be brought together to write a single novel. It would be such an excellent, economic and efficient use of brainpower and physical energy, without putting anybody in a danger of severe "burn out". Those thoughts culminated into the birth of the site http://write.co.nr ....... and I hope you all are going to contribute some piece of your imagination to it!

I've read so many novels by many authors. Sometimes, I think I could write my own. It seems pretty labor intensive, I do have to work. Any suggestions as to how to start?
