Do what T-D-C says (remember that not every weapon is suitable for backstabbing). You will leave shadows, but provided that you followed the rules, you'll backstab as you're doing so. You will know that you were successful if you get a message about a backstab multiplier in the damage you caused. Sometimes (often, early in the game), you will miss but that doesn't mean you didn't do it right.

Afterward, run.

Finally, some creatures can't be backstabbed (especially if they don't have a back).
