That's a tough one. Not that I'm trying to avoid the question, but I would honestly start with YouTube videos. The first thing I would look at is finding the grip you are most comfortable with for all of the different shots.
My advice would be to stick with it even if it gets super frustrating. Just like in golf, there's a certain point when you start to hit your shots where you actually aim them, and the game becomes a whole lot more fun.
I can always try to answer any questions you have in the meantime.

It's funny you guys talk about Querrey because he is one of the first players I think about for some reason when I wonder what the average player's life is really like and whether all of that time/effort/investment is worth it. At first blush, $6.5 million in career earnings and 7 titles traveling the world seems like a no brainer. But, if he doesn't have sponsors paying his traveling expenses, he probably isn't netting much. It has to be weird being a stud junior and just hitting that third round wall every week in your adult life. Something about that seems sad. I hope Sam got his share of tour chicks and parties. He always gave off a beach bum vibe.
Aussie Open always reminds me of that damn 30 Seconds to Mars song I just heard the other day for the first time in a while.

I would not.
I would start with finding a backboard (or a flat brick wall with no windows) and hitting forehands and backhands until it feels comfortable. Use whatever grip feels natural. Don't worry about form; just hit the ball with the strings and worry about getting to the point where you can put it in the same spot consistently.
