Take a look at www.lulu.com at this site you can post your ebooks or manuscripts which they turn into hardcopies for you, and post on a shop which has been made especially for your books, stories, articles. In other words you can make money from your writing.

Actually, good writers do what you did. That's what makes them good...the desire to always improve, or to think previous work could/should have been written better. Re-write your book, it could turn out to be GREAT!
 

The Monk was a co author on a small book = Ohio's Treasure Leads and Legends. Printed in 1977. For those interested in owning a copy, contact = themonk@ohiohills.com For more information. This is now the only place a copy can be obtained.

Hey Rogue Treasure Hunter,

Just took a look at your blog man and its great. A real inspiration keep up the good work. I myself am in the rogue catagory trying to make a living at this without a job and without starving to death and am always walking on the edge.

I am still working on my book. I've been published in some mags. years ago when I had more to say. Western & Eastern, few fishing magazines before the detecting bug. If it wasn't for spell cheker, I'd be suunk. ;)

;D ;D Jeffro... the September 2001 article... I well remember your article. In the
same issue was one by Mas Kadanoga. Mas is quite a detectorist. Competition, beaches, coins, beach and meteorites. If anyone reading this thread is interested in competition (fee) hunts I believe Mas will be at the AMDA competition hunt at Laughlin the last weekend in the month, October.
 

Looking at it right now, Jim- Sounds like you folks had a heckuva good trip! ;D
 

I wrote Pres. Clinton about Terrorism in 1996...

you see how that turned out. :-X :-\ ::)
 

I've got about 3/4 of the text written for a children's book. It's a "mostly True" story about a pet goldfish that my mom adopted. I'm going to finish it in a few weeks, and Lucysheep is going to do the illustrations. Also had ideas for two other books, one of which could be a fairly cheesy movie, but I don't think I could write it.
 

I've had some of my stuff published , but mostly technical junk, police procedures and even authored some state law, but I have always felt that was something anyone could do. I'm always being asked to write letters for someone else who just can't put into words the point they are trying to convey. Other than that I am a rank amateur, but I always thought I had a novel in me although short stories seems to be my calling. Now that the colder season is on us and I can't get out as much, maybe I can finish what I started? My problem is I read back over it and I don't like what I wrote so I am always editing it. Maybe I'll never finish but it is good mental exercise. God knows I need it! Monty
 

I think there is a writer in all of us, but some of us are lefties (o;
 

I've written 70+ short stories (only 1 *possibly* published) ranging in subject from Christmas/Santa Claus, mischievious bakers, "pop", (sometimes humorous) horror, sci-fi, and more. Still haven't written enough to collect into a book for any one genre yet. :(
Plus there is the score of proper book projects started....

My best advice for anybody contemplating writing is to *just do it*. Don't let other people tell you how (or what) to write! It took me 10 years to "unlearn" all I was taught in school before I found my "inner voice".

Now if I'd just take the time I spend on the internet and devote it to writing I'd generate a frightening amount of output.... ;)

Um,


"I Forgot what I was going to write... nobody woulda' read it anyway."






If you want to quote the above line in your next book - I'll sell ya' the rights to it.
 

I always think I should write a book, but never have got around to it. I read on average 6-8 books a month. I do write poetry and have been published a few times. I think about putting together a collection for a book, but I always put it off for someday because I just have too much to do today.

With a computer and a printer, you can publish your own poetry right from the comfort of your own home. I know it's true because I did it. It's not fancy, but I've sold a few copies to mining museums in California and Nevada. (I write mining poetry - an untapped niche. LOL)
