Try taking an existing view, and clicking "clone." That way the  
obvious stuff is already filled in. Things to remember:

1) You need a page if you want people to see all your sticky posts.

2) You need a block, obviously.

3) You will want to have filters. Musts would be node is sticky, node  
is published. You can add taxonomy, author, other conditions as you  
like. Try it out, and see what happens.

4) You probably don't need to deal with arguments.

Hope this helps.

Best,
Laura
