Is there a book inside YOU?

So if you're a frequent visitor to the website Facebook, you might have noticed the mass-trend to post 25 random about yourself. The concept is pretty simple. Someone posts 25 trivia facts about themselves and tags 25 friends in that note. Those 25 friends are supposed to create their own 25 random facts and tag their friend back, and the cycle repeats and repeats itself. When all is said and done, you'll find yourself learning all kinds of things about your friends, like how your college roommate got driving directions from Alec Baldwin or that the high school quarterback enjoys interior decorating.

But I've noticed one thing that keeps popping up on these 25 random facts list over and over: the desire to write a book someday. The subject matter is all over the map, but the common thread is a desire to share their voice on a topic they're passionate about.

I read somewhere that over 80 percent of people think they have a book inside of them, but few actually do something about it.  In the coming weeks, we're going to talk about how to put the excuses aside and start writing your first book.
