Default Forming a non-profit

Okay. I've been thinking about this for a long time and after busting my roll for the first time playing for a living for 2 years. I've been forced to do a lot of thinking.

The good news is that I was able to make a small deposit online (I've been playing live 1-2,3-5nl) and grind that up to where I can at least eat and pay bills. I know lots of people will tell me I should get a job. I should probably but I haven't been able to find one I want. But I figure its time to get this world-changing idea out of my head and into a tax-free entity.

My question is two-part. First, can I do this myself, or am I better off using one of these online places (e.g. legalzoom.com). And second, is there anyone that has experience with this type of thing that is willing to offer some insight/wisdom?

The NPO should be tax-free and able to accept tax-deductible contributions.

This is a legitimate idea and not some tax evasion scheme.
