I have written a book, and it is in production with a publisher as we speak. It's called On the Banks of the Ohio and is about a young lady that ends up in an abusive relationship.
I am working on my next one right now as well.

Written, yes. Published, no. I've got 3 novel-length manuscripts completed. It's a multi-generational historic series a la John Jakes' "Kent Family Chronicles" or Elswyth Thane's Williamsburg series.
I am looking into self-publishing, but since my daughter is just starting college, I'm probably going to have a few years before I can get the first run.
Like all aspiring writers, I'll just claim that it's all about the "process" and I don't really care if I ever get published. (No, really! I mean it!)
Oh ... something I picked up from consulting with the firm with which I'll eventually self-publish ... to find out how many pages your story would be in standard paperback form, divide the total number of words by 320.

I have written four books and am writing the fifth book right now. They are about pirates with plenty of action, drama and humor. I would like to get them published someday, though.

Written? Yes. Several books, actually. Published? No.
I mainly write historic fiction and Christian mysteries

Not a book, but I had my puzzle clues published in "Wordy-Gurdy" & got paid $20.00 for it.
