HOW TO WRITE A BOOK

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by FlAcKo-ThE-sErIaL-mUrDeReR, May 23, 2015.

  1. I'm writing a book about this Guy who doesn't know who he is sometimes and is trying to find his way in life, he gos to jail on occasion but isn't necessarly a criminal.he has a good heart but has a bad temper.he sees women as sexual objects and not human beings like he's knows he should. He lives with a lot of guilt but desperately wants to change. Do you guys think this will be an interesting book? Or should I quit?

  2. You'd have to explain it REAL good and in massive detail  cause most of those ideas you wrote are contradicting each other

  3. But it would be possible, you just have to be careful and experienced

  5. I read one word and Fifty Shades Of Grey came in my mind...Raine gave some good words and use a wide variety of vocabulary

  6. Could be a good book but it sounds kinda cliche.

  7. Sadly, if your book is not about the forbidden s word...no one will read it :?

  9. It's interesting, but it lacks the reason why he is like that. I'm sure you have in mind?

  14. To write fine read A LOT first. But, like A LOT. Your grammar is already lacking in this thread... :| .

  16. If this says read a lot before writing, i agree. Use a wide range of vocab and have good grammar. As Quimey pointed out, your grammar doesn't come across well from this thread. Which will badly effect your book. I believe all stories have potential, providing the writer is imaginative and can keep it interesting.

    Your idea does sound like it could be worth a read but I think you should have a more in depth description and a good back story as to why he is the way he is. Also it would be nice if you wouldn't turn it into one of those corny stories where he falls for a chick then his whole world changes and suddenly hes a better person. I don't mind romance but I hate cliche. Lol

    I'd suggest you read novels that relate to your idea and form a more solid base, then just go for it. But on fan fic or on a third party app like wattpad. I don't think many regular forumers care much for this type of thread, the readers are in fan fic :)

  18. No offense but, this sounds like a lot of books I've already read (I went through a horrible fifty shades period) but good luck!
