It’s Not Easy To Write A Book. Or Is It?

December 21, 2013 by Dave

book1-1.jpgHave you ever tried to write a book?   Maybe you have been successful at it and maybe you have not.

What does it take to write a good book?  What makes a book good?

Should you write fiction or non fiction?

When I wrote my first book, it was a daunting task.   However, I learned a lot in the process.  I could write another much easier than the first.

That’s the way it seems to work.   We all learn through experience.

My first book was a non fiction work.   It centered on something that I wanted to share with people.

That book is about helping people.   In some regards, writing non fiction is an important gift to your fellow man.

Do you know about something that others do not?   Do you know about something that others consistently and constantly make mistakes with because they don’t know what you know?

I would say that a book that teaches or helps others about such things would be something worth sharing and probably a book worth reading.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with fiction either.  Entertainment is of great value to people.  You don’t have to look beyond Hollywood to figure out that good entertainments is something that people are willing to spend a lot of money on.

What kind of book will you write (next)?  Will it be fiction or non?
