Question: Do you think it is a good idea to wright a book with a friend!?
She has been my best friend for 9 years!. I can use some help with my book and she is the only person who knows I am writing one!. She says she will help if I need it!. Do you think that this is a bad idea!. she helped me with one chapter that I knew I did a really bad job on and she made it much better!. But I don't know if I should go all out and say why don't you write this with me!? What do you think!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
There are some successful writing "couples" (such as Nicci French) and I guess it can be a nice and interesting experiment, but you have to trust and completely understand each other and have the same idea in mind!.

You can always consider to do the writing yourself, but have your friend help you whenever you need a hand!. Editing, fresh ideas, an opinion!. I have done this both ways (being the helping hand and receiving help) and I've always enjoyed this way of working a lot!. The difference is that in the end only the real writer's name is "on the cover"!.

Good luck and have fun!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Uhm!. As long as you two dont get in a fight or anything and you can agree to disagree and settle things out!. Normally though it can be hard becuase her views may be different than yours!.

Good look on your book!. Hope I helped!.
