I would suggest doing both. Write and read, though maybe not Lovecraft as a starting point unless you have a big dictation. Read something that isn't so hard to fallow, like King or Koontz. Reading will give you an idea of how to write things. It will also give you ideas, but it's important to try and take one or two ideas and turn that into the story. If there is too much, you'll want to break it up into different stories, or have that story in parts.

I may say more on this when I'm not writing in my cracked phone and not at work.
