Book  — 1 day ago

I want to write a novel based on my childhood and a series of children’s books based on my cat.

I like the idea of writing  — 3 days ago

but the actual writing bit is hard. Yeah, I’m lazy. I know that I need to create, to make stories in my head but I’m not 100% sure that I’m supposed to be a writer. I do sometimes start writing books/ stories but I don’t get very far. I want to write a brilliant book straight away without it being horrible first and in need of a million re-drafts, but one day I will finish a book! I will I tell you!

Writing  — 1 week ago

Writing is the best way I know how to express myself. It’s my hobby. It gets me through the day. To get paid for it would be a blessing. I’ve often dreamt of writing a book. I have several ideas, not too much time, but I would love to have a book published before I die! I have two poems published, so thats a start! :)Although they do not take as much time as a novel!

I've wanted to do this since middle school  — 1 week ago

I’ve had so many ideas, even started a time or two, but it seems like I always get distracted by other things in life. I do a ton of writing, but haven’t focused on one thing long enough to write a decent book. Now, it’s looking like if I meet my goals running and losing weight, that might turn into a book a lot faster than some of my previous attempts at writing a novel or short story collection.

well Im working a little bit on 2 books – Diary Of An Angsting Teenager (I know lame title) and a poetry one Waves of Wind. Dairy is like my real story’s blended with fiction, I had to start it becsuse of therapy but im actually enjoying it so I want to publish it :)

Always was told to do so  — 3 weeks ago

I actually have it started. I think my life has been painted enough that it will sell pretty big. If a man can write about his struggles with drugs and life (and embellish) then I can write a true autobiography and meet Oprah too.

and i will...  — 1 month ago

Write a book (inspired by God) and have it published!  — 1 month ago

I would like to – towards the end of my days – be shacked up in a country cabin out in the woods and have a lot of alone time … being able to pray and meditate AND WRITE A BOOK about “what”, I don’t know … God hasn’t given me the vision yet, but I pray that He will, once I’m done with most of my work through www.whenmagazine.com and such.

I've always thought of this...  — 1 month ago

I love writing and love books so this is an amazing idea to try. Last year I got one of the highest scores in the whole school on my English paper I had to write. I plan on writing a teen girl novel. Because, well I am a teen girl. I know I can write a book easily, but actually getting it published will be hard. Wish me luck!

Writing a book  — 1 month ago

I’ve got a shelf full of books on how to write a book. I’ve not read them all, only a few but I still want to write my book. I used to write a lot when I was younger…
