2003-10-25 ~ 12:00 p.m. ~ A book perhaps

Have I said before that I wanted to write a book? I have been thinking about it for some time, ever since I was single again. I didn’t know what I want to write, probably not an autobiography because I am probably too young to start one, but I think I want to write one about singles. There are just way too many books out there for married people, people who have relationships, etc, but…how about singles? And what specifically about singles? I sure do not want to turn it into another one of those self-help book, as I am not a psychologist myself and I don’t think I am experienced enough to give out advice. I want it to be a motivating book, something you read and feel really happy about yourself and it does not matter at what stage of life you’re at. Glenn agreed that I should do something about this, and he says that many people are troubled about being single. Maybe I will adopt a same kind of approach as one of the Carson’s book I read, where they write about something every chapter, and it’s only couple of pages per chapter, and so in the end, there are about 50 chapters. But it is a good book because every chapter, you learn something and it is easy to absorb.

I get the best ideas when I’m at work, but get distracted when I’m at home. I hope to start something this weekend, even if it means just tossing ideas around, but even if it means writing a couple of paragraphs, I’ll be happy.
