Default Write a book

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but I've always wanted to write a book. I'm not sure what it would be about, but I would want it to inspire others. I've been thinking, I may want to start with a children's book to kind of get the feel for how it works.

If you were to write a book, what would it be about?

I would love to write a book! I think mine would be a romance. I actually am trying to participate in nanowrimo. (national novel writing month) It started November 1st an ends at the end of the month. I am quite a ways a way from making the 50,000 word mark.

I have already written several. Writing a book is wonderful and difficult at the same time. You begin on a wave of inspiration, things seem to go easy - but then it stops, and you start searching for that next link in your story. That's just one of many, many problems a writer faces. But still - if you feel the desire to write, go for it!!

I am working on a book that is about the power of the mind and how we draw that power from the Universe. I know it's going to be long before I actually get done; however, since I am not writing it to make profit, it doesn't really matter.

I wrote six chapters of a book this year but ended up giving in. I have no confidence in my writing ability and am so down on myself when I don't get things just right.

The story and all my notes are stored away on my laptop, so I may pick it up again one day.

Writing a book is as hard as anything else that's worthwhile. I've written some books, too, and I haven't been able to get them published yet, but they're definitely worth writing. Most of my work include lots of elements of science fiction, horror, and sometimes fantasy.

When I was still a child, I liked to read fiction about heroes possessing martial art skill. I admired the way my favorite authors write those books and I always dreamed to write such books.
Now, if it's possible, I want to write about online business or health.
