Depends on what you know to start with.

I'm assuming by Logo you mean turtle graphics, and I'm assuming you
aren't very familiar with Scheme. In this case I'd write the
primitives (move, turn, pen-up, etc.) in normal Scheme (probably the
scheme/gui language). This will enable you to test them without the
added confusion of macro transforms. When all this was working I'd
start creating a new language using the doc Eli pointed out.

HTH,
