How To Write Book

Frederick Said:

Whats a good book for learning how to write books?

We Answered:

There's a great quote from the writer/playwrite Neil Simon: "I want to be a writer - what should I read?" The character's response was "The entire third floor of the New York public library."

Writing is like art - learn from the masters before you. Bronte, Tolstoy, Hemmingway, Shakespeare - read all of them.

Leo Said:

How Can I Write An Interesting Book?

We Answered:

You have to have an interesting idea, and interesting plot, interesting characters, interesting writing style, and everything else that makes an interesting book.

Dialogue grabs the reader's attention.
Incorrect grammar distracts the reader in a bad way.
Long paragraphs bore the reader in most cases. They are easy to get lost in.
Use good word choice and interesting voice that appeals to most people.
Don't have bland characters.
Have characters that has a different personalities than other characters. (Don't have character's that are nice, caring, and quiet. DOn't have multiple characters who are loud, abnoxious, and rude.)

I hope that helps.
Just think of all the good and bad qualities of the books you read and enjoy. Try to not use the bad things that annoys you in books, and try to use the good things that authors do in the books you like, like characters, plot, setting, themes, writing style, point of view, etc.

I love to write where can I publish a book?

How far along are with your book?

Writers like you have every potential to get started on a publishing career. If you are looking for self-publishing companies to publish your book, I know of a few companies that practically holds court to everything a book needs from getting you your copyright, size preferences, book cover design customization, layout consultation, copyediting and even marketing – at affordable costs.

The difference with self-publishing is that you happen to send in your materials to the publisher and they will do all the work for you depending on which program you are on. Publishing packages are very affordable and investing on getting your book published is a good start. It is best if you send in the entire manuscript and should not worry about protection because publishers have an agreement to not use your material without your consent.

I wish you luck!

Talk to Wizards of the Coast? haha.. they're the publishing company, so I guess you'd have to discuss this with them.
