I am in the process of writing a book. I am curious about your experiences in becoming an author. Tell me about the book (s) you've written, experiences you've had, tips you wish to share. I am looking to write a non-fiction piece. Thanks!

Nonfiction, huh? I don't have the patience, myself. Basic tips would be: write an outline, revise your outline, write a first draft, revise your draft, revise your revision, revise the revision of your revision. Throw it all out and write a second draft. Revise that. Repeat ad infinitum.
