I'll post if it turns out any good!

You have to set your self up in a dark room, or any where dark really.
Then just set the camera on a tripod or a steady surface, next use a extended shutter speed, such as 10 seconds or so.
That gives you enough time to write/ draw what ever it is you want. Other then that you just mess with the settings to get the desired results.

The torch/ flash light is the only light in the room, so it's basically all the camera picks up, giving you what you see above.

Pretty much, Correct.

Gold star for both of you!
