Would you ever write a book?

Question

Would you ever want it to be something people would want to read over and over again or just something to make some cash no matter if the book only sold one copy.

Answer 1

I've written one and am in the process of trying to get it published. I'd love it to be something people would read again and again.

Answer 2

I wrote a book for my children. I read it to them every night and they seem to enjoy it. I do not think I would want to cash in on something that is so personal. I'm writing a second book right now and my oldest child is helping. My children is my motivation, not money or popularity.

Answer 3

I would personally prefer to write something that was going to be re-read, if you are going to provide information or entertainment in the form of a book, then surely providing the best story or information would also result in good sales and you still receiving a good payout, also payouts from you book would last longer as it would continue to be read and re printed, rather than just dismissed as badly written rubbish

Answer 4

Yes, I would love to write a book. Something that people would want to read over and over and it became a classic and was required reading in high school or college.

Answer 5

I'm starting work on a children's novel. I don't necessarily want it to be recognised as a great work of literature, but I would love to be able to write something that became a treasured part of someone's childhood.
I have a few books like that in my life - where my grandma read them to my mom and my mom read them to me and I couldn't get enough of them. All I wanted to do was learn to read so I could read them for myself.

I'd love to earn a living through writing - and to produce greatly loved gems that children (and their parents) treasure.

Answer 6

I am writing a book now. I would like it to be something people will read over and over again... something that people will remember.

Answer 7

i would not mind writing a book, but i don't have the time 2 just sit and write a book, i would either get bored in the middle of writing it, or get mad because i have got stuck in the middle and can't think of the next thing that was going to happen

Answer 8

I would love to write a book. I would want it to be a book that women would want to share with other women. I don't even care about making any money for it.

Answer 9

I am writing one now. It is very interesting so far. A couple of teachers have read it and they
liked it. I hope that it could become a best seller
if I ever want to get it published.

Answer 10

I would write a book about my life just because off all the crap I have been through. I am sure most people would think I made it up though.
