anything that i have written, and that amounts to nothing more than a few riffs (:(), was written cause i was messing around and liked the sound of it. i've never thought "ok, now how do i strum this?"

Exactly what have been said :) Good points , when i write something , i just try out different things all the time , there ain't really no guide on how to do it , it just have to fit in with the song so , improvise and have a little creativity and it'll come :)
