This week's question...

If you could write a book, what would it be about, and why? (Though, of course, some of you already HAVE.)

My answer...

Mine would be a fiction book and it would be a cozy mystery. Mainly because it's the genre I love and know the best. I've already begun one and just need to make the time to sit down and write. In the past I've written romances (nothing published), but I've switched my favorite genres :) I always think you should write what you know the best.

    I think writing a mystery would be fun but hard: hiding all those clues in a fair way. I love reading mysteries though, and I once heard someone say something to the effect that all good fiction contains a mystery (a question that keeps the reader reading until the end).

    I totally agree...we should write about what we know, and in the genre we love. Cozy mysteries are so "you"! Enjoy!!

    A mystery sounds like a tricky book to write but fun! I agree with people writing what they know best or what they enjoy most. Hope you get the time to finish it :)

    Yeah, that's good advice, writing what you know. And reading a certain genre is a great way to get a feel for it. I think I'd write a bunch of science fiction because then I could make up whatever I wanted and not have to fact check!
