Alright here is a tutorial showing how I make my glowing lines/specks. Here it goes:
1.) Make a new image, making the background all black. Once opened, create a new layer. Set the colors so black is the background color, and red (a22a21) is the foreground color. Make a radical gradient so it looks kinda like the one in the picture.

4.) Set the brush to one of the fading brushes and set the size to "10". After that, change the red to orange (f9a239). Click ctrl-shift-n to make a new layer. Once completed, click on the pen tool and change it to "path". Make a zig-zag similar to the one in the picture.

5.) Click and hold on the pen tool icon and change it to "contour". Make the pointed corners smooth and rounded. Click on the "Paths" tab in the layer thing (Outlined in green in picture). Right click on the only thing there and select "Stroke Path". Make sure "pressure" is checked and the box shows "Brush". Click "Ok"

7.) Set the brush to different sizes and make lots of dots on the image. I use sizes 10, 5, 3, and 2.
8.) Click "Ok" so the settings apply. Now, right click on the same layer again, but this time click "Copy Layer Style".

10.) Right click on that layer and click "Blending Options". Goto "Color Overlay" and set the same settings I did.
