How to create extend a jquery function

I'm trying to create a jquery plugin

initially the plugin is used like

$('element').plugin;

Now, i want to extend it further to call specific operations like

$('e开发者_如何学Golement').plugin.create;

or

$('element').plugin.delete;

any way of doing this?

Read through this great tutorial on plugin creation from Justin Meyer
