The Time, the Money, and the Truth about Writing a Book

Writing a book doesn't just require inspiration and discipline. You also need to put in the time, money, and real commitment long before results show up. In this honest breakdown, I share the real hours, costs, and emotional investment behind writing a book, why the math often doesn’t look friendly, and why some work is still worth doing anyway.

Cornelia Funke
“The world was a terrible place, cruel, pitiless, dark as a bad dream. Not a good place to live. Only in books could you find pity, comfort, happiness - and love. Books loved anyone who opened them, they gave you security and friendship and didn't ask anything in return; they never went away, never, not even when you treated them badly.”
Cornelia Funke, Inkheart / Inkspell / Inkdeath

You put this in the wrong spot. Do not write it on my profile. Put it in the group discussion of this book on my group page: Ms. Madsen's class. Copy and paste it in the correct location.


Anthony Acosta The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan The book is really good so far. It makes me thrive for what is coming next like some gossip."What? She kissed who?" There are some parts I had to read over and over because I didn't understand it so this book would be a three but Rick Riordan is my favorite author so I'll give it a 4. Tell me what some other people thought.
