I have put some tutorials on my site to get you started.
Here are some links for sites with tutorials. http://vector.tutsplus.com/category/tutorials/ http://www.graphicmania.net/35-high-quality-illustrator-tutorials-you-can-not-miss/http://www.minervity.com/features/illustrator/25-awesome-illustrator-cartoon-tutorials/This one is about how to create a vector drawing and then how to save it for stock. I found it very helpful.http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/designing/how-to-create-a-vector-illustration-and-prepare-it-for-micro-stock-sale/#more-2069How I have taught myself so far was to learn how the pen tool works. That is the tool you will be using most to create your shapes. Then once I understood how it works I then scanned some drawings I had made and I traced them in illustrator. Next learn how to color them in and ad gradients. Something I read somewhere was when using gradients always start off with both sides the same color and then adjust from there. It gives it a much more natural look. other than that once you understand the basic tools start practicing. Good luck!
I have a blog where I share how uploading vectors to microstock has been for me: http://stockillustrator.blogspot.com/
