To help me decide which type of book I’ll write…let me break down the subcategories:
Fiction:
*mystery/suspense…a “who did it” kind of book. These are fun to read, but I don’t want to write one now.
*romance…as popular as these are, they’re just not my cup o’tea…I’d rather have the real thing…:)
*biography…I don’t enjoy reading what others say about someone. I like only the facts from “the horse’s mouth”. So, no thanks.
*action-oriented…no thanks.
Let’s see….nonfiction:
*Personal essay (autobiography)….a true life’s story from “the horse’s mouth”. Right up my alley.
*Textbooks…enjoyable (what?!), but not now.
*History…I don’t have anything in mind for this. So…no go.
*How to….already writing these. For my book writing project, though, not now.
Guess which category/type I’ve chosen….for my book writing…..:)
What’s next?….

I write only fiction (3 books so far) and love it. Specifically Southern fiction. I recommend you write what you know. Since I was born and bred in the South, that’s what I know. Good luck.
