Writing a book will not make you rich. I'm going to debunk that myth now.

You write a book by coming up with a damn good idea that YOU'RE passionate about, never mind coming on here and asking "What ideas do you have?"/"What should I write about?". That just makes you someone who can copy ideas, it doesn't make you a writer. Besides, coming up with ideas yourself is fun, so I don't understand why people would want to copy.

Start by thinking of a character. Write down their name, where they live, what their back-story is, what passions they have. Next, you need to think of your plot. Choose what you like - legends you're interested in, dreams you've had that were vivid, conversations you've heard ...

Keep brainstorming, and when you're done put your character and plot side by side to see how they fit in together.

Only when you've written the whole thing, edited and edited again should you think about publishing.
