..but I'm not too sure where to start. I don't want to say too much about it (yet) because I don't want to jinx anything. Suffice it to say that I have alot of research to do in terms of content. What are some good books that are helpful for people writing their first book? Maybe that's a dumb question..idk..Has anyone here written a book?

I have thought many a times about writing a book. I just might one day, it keeps comeing up in my mind latley.

Wasted [ a memior of anorexia and bulima] by Marya Hornbacher was beautifuly written ! It had so much information but yet it didnt read like a text book. Im a big fan of footnotes in books. Even if your not intrested in eating disorders , that book is amazing !

I think you don't wake up one day and say "I will write a book", I think that just happens naturally.

Just start writing a lot, like a journal or something, and READ READ AND READ.

My grandfather was an acomplished novelist and someone asked him once "what do you need to do in order to write?" and he just said "read".

Well I'm sure you read.

Fuck yes it is.
