Yowzers.

I'll tell you this, for now:

Go to the library and get a book or two on pottery/ceramics. Just something simple with alot of pictures that lays out the basic ideas. That's where I started. It allowed me to confidently stroll into the local pottery store and buy the correct clay and glazes without feeling too stupid. As a result I managed to make a few nice slab pots and some coasters (pre-tiki) that I'm still proud of today.

So get a book, then go play with clay for a bit. Get familiar with your new medium. Get your hands dirty. Hula girl will thank you later.
