Thread: Writing first non-fiction book

Hello everyone,

I'm writing my first book, which will be non-fiction. I recently became a cab driver to be able to go to school full-time. It's about being a cab driver. I'm looking for some guidance as I've never written a book before. I'm willing even to share writers credits with someone for assisting me. Can anyone help me with this project or lead me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Eric

Let's take this at the most basic level: it needs to have a beginning, middle and end. In other words, the plot needs to lead somewhere. If you haven't already, brainstorm for possible aspects of your life that would interest the reader, and write down an outline. After that, just write it...

Figure out exactly what you want to write about first. Create a bare-bones plot and work from there.
