There are some websites that selling CDs at the price of 297USD and saying that every body can write any kind of book in 14 days or LESS!
Is that a TRICK or is that POSSIBLE?

Most authors takes months or even years to write a book. But if the ad doesn't specify producing a good book, anything is possible.
It is a trick. The book most people would produce in 14 days would not be something most of us would want to read.

I think that it depends on the person trying to write the book. It is possible to write a book in 14 days but how long is that book, what is the quality, who is trying to write it, and what is it about? Those are really good questions to ask. I believe that you could write a book in 14 days but not everyone can.

The simple answer is that one cannot expect to write a book in 14 days. There is no magic wand or super CD that can bestow that power on you.
Do you want to write a book? A reasonable schedule would be a chapter a week. If you want to get started, there is a good book that will help, "Novelist's Boot Camp" by Todd Stone. He has a bit of a tough approach, but if you really want to get that book written, his advice is priceless.
Good luck to you!

I could do it. I write very fast with minimal errors, and I have plenty of stories to tell. Could everybody? No. Most probably could though, if they really tried. Well, the equivalent of a book anyway, they may not have the creative talent required.
Can you learn it from a CD? No.
I mean, it's very possible to write fifteen pages a day, multiply that by fourteen and you get 210 pages, and that's a book.

yes it's possible, but i certainly wouldn't pay to find out how to do it. and no, not everyone can do it. different people have different writing styles (and there's nothing wrong with taking 14 days or 14 years, if you come up with something worthwhile). sure, almost anyone could probably pump out a crappy book in 14 days, or 'any kind' but not necessarily a good one!

Anyone can write a book in any reasonable length of time. The catch is in the quality.
The old saying applies: "If you don't have time to do it right, you don't have time to do it twice".

Of course it CAN be done. But everybody? No way. I know people who can't write 2 complete sentences.

How about 'Peace in our Time'. By Georgio Bushiano.

My bet would be it's a scam.
