chimneys work best after they warm up. to get a draft going, set your fire as stated in a prior post, but do not light it yet..
take a newspaper and make a torch and light it and hold it up inside your fireplace in the damper area. the warm air rising will start the draft and you will have less smoking inside the house.
now light your fire..
