Have any of you started writing a book or novel? I've started writing a book of my life and it's basically like a journal. I write in it everyday and will do so until my seventies then I'll try to get it published.

I've written short stories a plenty and am actually in the middle of writing 2 novels. It's all a matter of discipline: if you really want to be a writer, you have to train yourself to write no matter if you want to or not. Write every day (it doens't have to be about your book, or even be good) just as long as you get something down. Journals are a great way to do that, and i commend all of you who keep one (i can't keep one for some reason: as in I lack the drive. Just get something down, ideas and inspiration will come.
