I did take 14 years to have a book almost ready! I created a quit smoking system, that works, and even more important, "I love to tell people about it". But, it took me that long, not to write, but to understand how it actually worked, and how to explain it. Now, that I am versed in that, I need to re-write it, from a point of view. And, that can come bouncing back to me from a prospective publisher. I plan on podcasting a "How to quit smoking" lesson, and publishing it (audio) at iTunes and other directories. With links to my site and books and pay for audio, that people can download onto their ipods and mp3 players. I am adding a weekly podcast radio show..about all the aspects of quitting, and info and questions on every way to quit. That will also be free to listen to. I first got the idea of podcasting from Ron P, so thanks Ron! I think this site has a lot of newbie book writers, and it makes sense sometimes to state what is obvious to the experienced. I am the biggest newbie too! Thanks Patricia, Don M Soon to be published Quit Smoking Muscles Hi,

I created a quit smoking system, that works, and even more important, “I love to tell people about it”.

But, it took me that long, not to write, but to understand how it actually worked, and how to explain it.

Now, that I am versed in that, I need to re-write it, from a point of view. And, that can come bouncing back to me from a prospective publisher.

I am an amateur to the bone, and I think there are some valid points in these paragraphs; however, there is more than two kinds of writers. There is also the writer who wants to be widely read but takes their conscience into consideration. It's not always all the way one way or all the way the other way. For example, Kurt Vonnegut. For that matter Isaac Asimov. Thank you. Patricia must be speaking about non fiction books.
