Would you make money out of writting a biography of yourself? or creating a book of yourself?
Some people are being more famous for being published in books and stuff. And what's weird is there are people who are really buying for those books.
If you're about to make a book about yourself; what will that be and why? and why would you do that for?

Only if I ever achieve or do or live through something worth writing or worth publishing. Now, I don't think any person would be interested in buying a book about me. If I had to, I'd probably write one about my funny/embarrassing/crazy moments... at least that would be fun :D.

I think personal experiences is fine ^_^-)
... and what's nuts is it turns out to be a movie.
Some novels or books are turned to be like that; right? Especially if it gets popular. Well; that's something to look forward for~!! ^_^-)

Dear Sister Resy
Your message seems to be very challenging. Even as I am writing to you now, I am in the midst of writing a book entitle, "39 Strategies and Tactics to Love Weight For Life'. Earlier I have also written a book on selling i.e. 'How to Master the Art of Closing Every Sale'. It is a self published book. It took me about 5 years to sell and promote the book off line. The question is "Do you write books to make money or to contribute to society?" My take on this is to enjoy happiness when doing both. Writing books or articles should be a hobby that you should enjoy. The money and the fame will come. Trust me. Thanks.Love Bro. Joe. GBU. RSVP and ASAP. OK?

Whoah!! That's great! I would love to have one of your copies. Can I?
That must be challenging. Can you tell me more how did you put it up for years? That's going to be a great story for me and will serves as my guide as well. you know the old saying; "If you don't know how to get there, ask someone who has already been there."

If I'm given a chance, I want to write a novel or publish my own book even not for money, just for passion. I may not be a very very good writer but I just wanted to share something to readers.
But, before I had a dream of being shakespeare or something. Thinking about it is so impossible. Anyways, if I really like it, then I know there's now impossible with God if I really ask that. :)

Of course, for the money. I am not a hypocrite and if I could write a book then I would sell it. But I don't like to be popular. I am the shy type and would like to be quiet about everything. I would like to keep a low profile about myself. But you can't avoid such things if it comes willingly. Whatever comes I'll accept it and take care of it.

Yeah; exactly... How about those blogs which also makes money; right? Come to think of it it is more legit making money in books the eventually it will be recognized by book readers who are classy and willing to pay for a good book because of the content of it.

People now a days do anything for money and writing a book about themselves is one of them. If I really had something to really write about that I think people would care to know I would do it. I really don't like to write that much as well but you can always get someone else to do it for you I guess.
I think the motivation in it is that no one will ever have your story and in some cases no one can say you are telling a lie about an experience.

You will get paid for writing e-book when someone buy your e-books. You can also make money online for writing articles.
