#16 Books I Want to Write

I consider myself blessed to be surrounded by friends and family who are gifted with so many talents. Writers, singers, musicians, actors, photographers, dancers, teachers, attorneys, religious leaders, business leaders, social leaders and some awesome kids are in my circles and always ready to teach and share. As you can tell from my blog, I enjoy writing (and singing too!).
Recently one of my talented writer friends decided to start a novel. She wrote and wrote and went back and edited and finally she asked if she could read what she had started to get my opinion. I truly was interested in the story and I can't wait to hear more of it. But it got me thinking: I can write. If I wrote a book, what would it be about?



 Autobiography: If I told you, you'd never believe me. I've had terrible things happen that turned into amazing events, characters that seem to come out of fairy tales, and kids who say the wisest things.

Science Fiction/Fantasy: I love zombies, vampires (not the glittery kind), steampunk,ancient legends and folklore. If I threw all of it into a blender with my imagination I could write a book with it. Definitely.

Poetry: I have some journals from childhood through college full of bits and pieces. Going back through it with an adult perspective could be an interesting attempt.

Mystery/Horror: I'll leave you guessing. Isn't that the point? http://www.amazon.com/Write-Damn-Mystery-Step-Step/dp/0312304463 



Perhaps I will just stick with the blog for now...What books would YOU write?
