How do I go about creating good folk music?

Study classical guitar first. Experiment. Take influence. Take in.

Well then yeah a lot of what this guy (>>65500692) said. If you're interested in traditional percussion you may want to listen to some African folk music, I recommend Babatunde Olatunji's album, Drums of Passion

Where to start with learning classical? I am familiar with Fahey and Steve Howe but not much else and I am welcome to suggestions
just use chords that go up/down by fifths and sevenths

In case this is something like you're going for, just learn some patterns and chords and then play around / combine them. sooner or later you'll come up with something. Why do you want to compose anyway when it's a dead style and there are so many great tunes already written?
