If you can start with magic items DUDE GET SCROLLS!!!!
They are cheap, and you would have the flexability of a wizard. Pick up scrolls of spells that are good here and there but not worth knowing as a sorcerer. Don't be afraid to pick up a couple higher level ones as well. Get a scroll organizer to carry them, it is mundane equipment from FR.
Also a couple potions are good, get some healing. There are not many decent permanent cheap magic items. But if you are starting out with magic you will probably have some good loot very soon. Potions and scrolls can help you survive to get that loot.
For feats decide if you are going to be more of a caster or more of a sneak attacker. If you are going to cast alot maybe spell focus in a school of magic. Improved initiative is always nice. So is point blank shot and other ranged feats. I took enshew materials for flavor reasons.
But man I would love it if my sorc got 1000gp for magic items starting out. Most 2nd level spells are only 150 and 1st level are 25. Lots of good potions for 50
For cantrips Read Magic and Detect Magic. RM for your free scrolls and DM gives you another way to find things it has a bunch of uses. Message is good for comunications at range in quiet. Dancing lights is also great. Presdigitation is a MUST have. This is like weak do anything and it lasts an hour. If you are creative you can use this for tons of things with it. Last game I used this one spell more than any other.
Another good spell is silent image. Get creative there are lots of posts on how to get the most out of this spell. The area of effect is huge and the range is long. Great for hiding and sneaking, as lasts as long as you concentrate.
