I probably have an entire library in me, but I can never seem to write anything. I can tell people some of what I am thinking and what I have done personally, but it never makes it to paper unless you are printing all of my goofy questions and answers out yourself!!!hahahaaha!!!

Probably making a living. As a writer I 've written about everything from private school education to spark plugs in the ad business. Please don't let anything, time, excuses stand in the way of your story, your book.
I've co-written and edited several books for for people who have self published. Remember, Big Publishing doesn't want you, unless you're John Grisham. Be ready for rejection. But, your family, your club, your church are ready markets for your work. Join a writing class and roam around the internet for information on self publishing. Good luck and keep at it. Don't give up, you have something to say.

Yes, I actually started writing one several years ago. Until one day I accidentally hit the wrong button and the whole thing up and disappeared. I had forgotten to save my work. I just haven't felt like starting all over again. It was a self help book for young lady's.
Maybe some day soon:~)

Yes, I have a book that I have been wanting to write for at least 10 years. It would be kind of a history book of the area I am from. My main concern is finding a publisher, and I have alot of pictures that I would not want lost.

Commitments. Obligations. But it will be written. At the moment grands and their parents live with me but by spring I intend to work a set number of hours per day 5-6 days a week.

Kind of. It would be about my parents and their amazing life together.It's been bittersweet watching them grow old through the years but I have so many hilarious stories about them. My dad has a dry sense of humor and my mom loves to laugh and they both pull pranks on each other.
I won't write a book per se but I will write a memoir to be passed through the family.

I would love to write about all the politics of officers, and the enlisted people that were wronged while in the military. I won't write it because I know how the truth can be twisted, and it could come back to haunt me.

Yes - I have 2...and even have outlines and a few notes.
What keeps me from finishing? Time - dedicated time for when the 'muses' hit.
Writing can't be forced so I have to wait until I am not working FT and can just hit the PC whenever the urge strikes me.

I have been told several times that I should write a book. Maybe when I retire there will be enough time to do so.
