As someone who has written two books, I suggest you start at the beginning and keep writing. Gool luck.

Thumbs up

thnx for the info guys i did start a journal about my life but it talked about more than just my adoption, i was writing about the crazy things i have been through in my life from childhood to marriage to divorce to moving out of state to adoption just in that order so i just don't know how to actually turn that into a book

Talking hmmmmmmmmmmm.......

Well Avante19...did you ever thinkthat a lot of the crazy hings that went on might have stemmed from adoption? I'm sure not everything, but some of it is quite possible....maybe you should just fous on writing a book about your life instead of your adoption....and then it might all fall into place...
