My First Book... (What Would Your 1st Book Be About?)

My First Book... [Title]

I asked a wise man what his first book would be about, if he were ever to write one that is..

His response was inspiring for me. It goes like this:

My first book Would remain unpublished.. but it would be a book about
1. What I want to do
2. Why I want to do it
3. How others have succeeded/failed
4. How I intend to get it done.

What would your first book be about?

Looking forward to hearing my friends.

Also im no author so it will never get done.

I thought everyone had a 'first' book called "My Book" (as in "he's no good in My Book").

Times are changin'.

My first novella was about a man who took a bad injury and slowly descended into madness and killed and disposed of someone.
I have another idea for a different story but I originally wanted to turn the character from the first into a serial.

Oooh make it a prequel to Cows With Guns;

a young punk cow from 2196, where cows have evolved intelligence, but being in the midst of a war against the humans to stop the slaughter of innocents for hamburgers and meatballs and other tasty things, must struggle daily against the incessant onslaught the humans bring, seeking any means to survive. Meanwhile, a reclusive cow professor, hides in his barn tinkering on his newest invention, the bovine time displacer. The punk cow, having just evaded the human patrols with his udders intact, seeks safe haven, wandering the lands until he happens upon the professor cow's lair, and the professor cow, thrilled at having company not there to devour his shanks, eagerly shows him the marvel of his invention. The punk cow dismisses it as the ravings of a senile old bovine, deranged by the years in solitude and the ravages of age, but suddenly, the humans find them. Teams of men clad in black with automatic weapons surround the barn "Come out with your legs up". In a futile attempt to hide, the professor cow decides, "It's now or never!" to test his machine, and thrusts the punk cow into his contraption, locking the door and watching through the foggy glass porthole, before he sends the punk cow back in time... to 2018. Where cows chew cud, moo a lot and don't really know why those humans keep them in one spot nor why bessy went missing just after nelly. Till punk cow moos them into enlightenment, after much chagrin... And with his tactical skills and knowledge of firearms, and their eventual willingness to be corralled, he builds a crack team of heffers, and together, they become, the Moo team...

*cue mus.. Oh it's a book..

My book is called "A box of wine, 2 grapefruit, and an uncertain future."

I've not finished it yet. I have to start it first.

A very special cookbook.

It's fair to say I've live a somewhat interesting life, with many ups, downs, and downright dark times, interspersed with moments of sheer hilarity.

For many years I've wanted to write an autobiography, but it's publication would come with some conditions;

*It can't be published until after my death

*Any revenue generated from sales is to be shared equally between my children

'Angry Nuns With AR's on Prozac.'
A comedy musical.

Ummm...my first book will be a collection of my poetry...as will my second and possibly third...(working on)

Then possibly a Sci-Fi comedic adventure series...Or a Sci-Fi graphic horror cautionary tale...(working on both)

What would your first book be about?

It would have be a dummies guide to something dumb.



Maybe a dummies guide on how to zip your fly without getting it caught.


Or


A picture book with ........ oh wait Hugh, Larry and few others already made their fortune dong this.

That's my problem, I've started so many books I can't count them all, but I can't figure out what my 1st book should be about.

I start down one path, and something else interests me and then I head down that path for a while. Life's funny that way.

So, in all honesty, I can't say what my 1st book will be about. I hope people like it though!

Books are hard to market and sell....

Screen plays/Scripts...not so much

Dialog is easy!!!
