Dry wood, never freshly cut down, and stored out of the rain. Good kindling base, don't hesitate to use fire starters. Feed slowly, your goal is glowing hot coals. keep the flue open till you get close. Dont shut it all the way till its roaring.
On the firestarter thing, the natural ones work great. Avoid the foil encased ones, all sorts of bad going on there
Thank you!
