How to Make Your Own Book

You are really great at writing. You want to make a book SOO bad! But you don't know how to. Looking for help? Read this post, and when you're done you will start creating a great book.

1. Suggest a good topic
Do you know what Google is for? Its for you and other people to ask other people about information, and to share posts and all that. Google search "Good topics for a book?" and a bunch of stuff will come up. I am creating a series right now, but I won't tell the public what it is until it is copyrighted and into stores. (I hope! Doing the secret...) Its a fiction story. Anyway, just look up what is above on Google and a bunch of Yahoo Answers will come up.

2. Get Microsoft Word
Microsoft Word is an application on your computer. It lets you type anything on it, and upload any image, etc. Create your story on there! When your finished your story for the day, exit out of Microsoft Word and a box will come up saying something like, "Save File" and "Discard File". Click "Save File" if you want to save your story and go back to it later and continue your story, and click "Discard File" if you don't like what you wrote and would like to chose a different topic, or to start over. Another great application to try is Open Office. That is the application that I used to create my story. It lets you do several things. Write a Document, create a PowerPoint, make a Graph, etc. etc, etc. Click "Write a Document" and start creating your story!

3. ABSOLUTELY HAVE A PRINTER
You HAVE to have a printer if you want your book to be in stores, so you can print out your story and send it to a publisher. If you don't have a printer, then get a Flash Drive, upload your story onto there, take it to someplace that has a printer (most likely a library), plug the Flash Drive into the USB Port, open up your story, press the keys CTRL and P (if you are finished), and click "Print". Your story will then be coming out of the printer, staple your story together, and send it to a publisher!

                                                         

     This is where you put in your Flash Drive when you hook it up to your computer.

4. Send the story to a GOOD publisher

After you have printed your story out, send it to a publisher. Some good publishers are:

http://www.wlwritersagency.com/

Dorance Publishing

Dog Ear Publishing

Tate Publishing

http://www.choseyourauthor.com/

http://www.authorhouse.com/

Hope you like these! You may have heard of a few other publishers, too. Look inside of a book and it will probably say who it was published by, and maybe try to contact them.

Those are 4 easy steps on how to make your own book. You could also call it how to make yourself an author :).
