HfR,

Thanks for opening my eyes to this option for generating income. I never would have thought of writing fiction. I'm working on a non-fiction book (my 1st crack at writing) right now based on my experiences with owning some rental houses, just to get a taste of writing "something". I figure any experience will help me get a feel for the process of self-pubbing and for creating a cover, picking keywords, titles etc. I never wrote anything before, and I plan on writing fiction once I've "warmed up" with this little project. So here's my first observations:

1. This shit is harder than it looks!

2. This is an awesome business model!

I plan on writing quite a bit once my schedule loosens up a little in a month or so, and I'm attempting to begin to become an author in that time. Can you elaborate on what steps you took to "prepare" to become a writer, since I think you said you never really planned on being one before you got started in this. Were there any particular books, websites, forums, etc, that you found helpful to get you "up to speed"?

I'm currently reading "Techniques of the Selling Writer" and "Writing Fiction for Dummies". I just started both but already I can say they're good for a newbie. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks again for inspiring.
:thumbsup:
