You could begin by reading some books by Raven Grimassi and Christopher Penczak. They are both very knowledgeable and well respected in their field. They are not Wiccans. Good Luck.

Witchcraft is not something that you could learn over a short period of time. This mystical art needs total dedication and devotion. Usually, the dark demonic world was where the secrets were kept. Solomon used to rule the demonic world under his reign. Witchcraft started from there when some knew how to use the linguistic words of these lost civilizations. They are there in this atmosphere and are very near. Never cross the line until you are ready to deal with their evil dogma. Any human who chose to be their alliance will lose their own soul as a trade. This is something you need to think about very seriously. May I caution you that you will never be the same again.

Raymond Buckland is also a good author to start with.

You can't.
Not because it doesn't exist, it does, but it is inherited.
Unless you have magical parents, you can't do witchcraft.

Witchcraft is basically a spiritual (not necessarily religious) study of a variety of things such as healing, divination, spell craft, and dealing with spirits (such as Fae, Deva's, ghosts, and elemental, for example.)

There are so many kinds of witchcraft, that for me to tell you what to do could perhaps deter you from the type of witchcraft that is more of your style to practice.

To become a witch, simply start picking up books on the subject and star reading stuff on the Internet. Read everything you can. Not every teaching is sound, and you won't get Harry Potter results (I hope that's not what you think). But start to follow your gut on what interests you the most. There really isn't just one way to become a witch.

Start studying up on the principles of energy work, psychic self-defense, on Hermetic philosophy, on the Doctrine of Signatures (which is how the ingredients in spell crafting is determined). Learn about herbs if they interest you. Or crystals. Or the planets. Or about the kinds of spirits that interest you. Learn some form of divination such as scurrying or Tarot.

The best piece of advice is that you can't do it all at once. You need to know yourself, you need to learn to concentrate, to visualize, to have confidence when doing a spell or ritual, to learn what you need to know. It takes YEARS!

Below are some links that may help you.

Start your studies with the books of the late Scott Cunningham.
Even though he was Wiccan, his information on magic is not specifically Wiccan.
