Would You Write A Book?

I would write a book of my life, but my writing skills suck, although boring now, my life was quite colorful in the past.

Would you write a book of your experience ?

Yeah it’d be fiction. I’d hide a lot of things and I’ve an idea…not fiction wouldn’t be good.

Yes that is exactly what Im planning to do…more like a notebook of my experiences and then continued with reflections. I think it’s a very therapeutic thing to do to get it all out on paper. In an organised way

I wish I could write a book but I don’t know what to write about… and also, I don’t enjoy reading very much so there’s that…

my sister was saying the other day i should write my memoir. Have to be pretty brave to admit my delusions. I mean i’m in hospice care so i won’t be around much longer but don’t know how my family would feel about it.I mean would they really want to read about me falling apart? Think I’d like to leave them something nice. Maybe could write some poems for them. I mean my daughter lost her dad and now me want to leave something sentimental to both my kids.

I wrote a book about my life. I’m the same way as you, @Mountainman. My life today is extremely boring. (Which is all good). But my past is very colorful.

What is the illness you are dying from, may I ask, @finally?

My life is full of trauma and assholes and me being an ■■■■■■■. I’m pretty sure people would just come away from it thinking karma was a hard pill to swallow.

I would never write it down, though. It’s all way too embarrassing and scary to remember.

Weird. Asshole) is censored, but not assholes.

I would love to write a book about my life, but I doubt anyone would like to read it.
I haven’t really had an eventful life, nothing really out of the ordinary except for schizophrenia, which is not all that uncommon.

I would love to write a fictional book where I project some of my feelings over on the characters, though.

I wrote 2 poetry books, kinda lazy on working on another.

I’ve written nearly three books, so far. Two on Microsoft products and one on digital portrait photography (had a co-author). I’ve discovered that my negative sympoms and publishers’ timelines aren’t compatible and the extra stress isn’t good for my health.

No interest in writing my own story.

I should write a book; my life has been surreal.

i just personally love to read memoirs of everyday people. How different people’s lives can be, what they’ve overcome. I’m not a big fiction or fantasy reader.
