The Creation Kit allows you to submit your plugin along with any required data files to the Steam Workshop. When you first select this menu option, if you have an archive already associated with your plugin, you will be asked if you want to use it. If you do, skip the next step; if you want or need to create a new archive, however, the Archive Browser will appear, with its likely incomplete list of required files that don't already exist in an archive. You can add files or remove them until you have gathered everything you need to make your mod function correctly.  For more details on how to do this, see the above section on building an archive. Hitting the "Pack Files" button will then create an archive with the same name as your plugin but a different extension.

Next, the "Upload to Steam" dialogue will appear. There, you can enter a brief description of your mod and comma-separated tags to categorize it, select an image to associate with it, and then hit the "Upload" button to publish it.
