I had a teacher one time that taught us to write papers this way, and I believe it would apply to this situation also. Write each section or separate thought on index cards. That way, you can move the cards order around any way you want to see how the story fits. You can also, always add more cards, or take out cards. Good luck.

I agree: just write something down. You will probably hate it. Leave it alone for a bit, but let your subconscious mind brew over any and all ideas from as many angles as possible. When you go back to edit it, examining it from a fresh perspective, you should be able to have a better idea of where you want to go with that first paragraph. First paragraphs are always the worst but you will never write anything if you get stuck on it. You may not even use what you originally wrote at all. Maybe you'll use one word or one sentence. And that will help build what you really like. But I have always been told that writing is the easy part, or it should be anyway--have fun with it because nothing is set in stone, nor should it be; editing is really where the real work begins. Also, let someone else look at your work, and give their perspective on it. Maybe they'll have some good ideas, maybe not. Maybe their terrible ideas will trigger something for you.

I am currently writing a book of my own, so I love coming up with first paragraphs from a whole bunch of different ideas! First of all, I would think about the main story, which all your other ones are based on. Write down as many details and info as you can about the subject and events in your story. Then, write down anything that pops into your head! After that, you can revise it, but whenever you think of an idea at the spur of a moment, it is always good to document it, so that you can use it as future notes and ideas for the story later on. Good luck writing! :)

You know, I suggest when you can't think of what to write, then bring in something new, even if it isn't very important. Basically you've got your entire story blocked up behind a place where you can't think of what to put there, and what you need is that little push to get it past there so you can continue. Having some sort of random event happen in your story is a way to apply that push, so to speak.

Just keep writing, writing, writing. Just keep writing, writing, writing. Even if at the end of the day, you throw half of it out, it make give you ideas and inspire you. Also, maybe get involved in a writer's group after you feel more comfortable with your writing and others critiquing it. If there isn't one close to your, try an on-line one. Yahoo! Groups has quite a few. I belong to one called Haven_of_Writers

Donnabell's answer is correct. In fact, many writers simply "throw up" a lot of different ideas - some of which are developed, others which are tossed away.
A good axiom for writers to remember is "Write from the heart, but edit from the head."

every story should have a beginning,a middle & an end, but that doesnt mean they have to be in that order.keep writing(a writer writes) & just as importantly keep reading.where does any story start,"the past is history,the future is mystery...this moment is a gift-thats why its called the present",follow your instinct's-your first thoughts count

Maybe you don't have to write it linear fashion ? ie from paragraph one to paragraph 2 to paragraph 999 etc. Who says you have to do it that way? Maybe you are just finding it to constraining like that. I would try just writing out what you have . Maybe you can think about writing them as complete but related short stories. There is no "right" way to write !
