I have written two books, one was a book about online marketing techniques and the other was how to make it as a freelance writer. I am currently in the begining stages of my newest project which is a indepth study of the book of Thessalonians from the bible. This is a large project and may take as much as a year to complete.
Writing is a lot of fun and I love every minute of it.
As part of NaNoWriMo - I wrote a small novel featuring a very wise professor trying to solve a mathematical puzzle before an evil cult does. Sort of like Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code in a way.
I have never written a book, but I do write a blog (arewenearlythereyet.wordpress.com) about my day to day family life and one day I would love to turn my blog into a book. It would be based on reality though, I’m not sure I’ve got the imagination to write non-fiction!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
