Hey, it looks like you're doing pretty good for a first-timer ^^ If you're already understanding events and maps well enough, then you really have potential to become and Event Scripter or RGSS Scripter later on. If you'd like, I can try teaching you a bit of RGSS sometime, PM me if you're interested.
It's always good to see new faces in the game development world, and especially those who have the focus to attempt to finish a game, which it seems like you have. I'd be glad to help you out in the way of coding and story writing if you'd like.
