Glad to help.
tls2351 - it sounds like the short shots are the place to begin. In addition to the broom/mop drill, you may want to start with just putts, left hand only, then right hand only.
As you do them, focus on the 'swinging' motion, and on keeping the hand leading, the slightly forward leaning shaft.
It can be helpful to use a bit of a stronger left hand too.
As you start, don't worry about where the ball goes, your focus should be on listening for the 'click' of solid contact, and on a smooooooth flowing motion.
Chips next, which are harder to do one handed than most think! Keep those hands ahead, and hit 'down' on the ball, trying to hit a spot on the ground in front of it.
Flat left wrist, bent right wrist
