Synopsis The Writer's Idea Book by : Ciparum llc
Every writer worth his or her weight in gold knows this one - ideas are cheap. Every day, we get bombarded from every angle with ideas and more ideas. Once in a while we come up with a good idea or hear about a real life event or experience that could be a back drop for a novel. We commit it to memory. It's such a great idea, how can I ever forget it. Sometimes our memory won't fail us, and we remember our idea and use it as planned. Other times, we cannot for the life of us remember. On the other hand, sometimes, we did indeed save the idea. We created a file, gave it a name and saved it on our computer. Herein lies the problem - Out of sight, Out of mind. If you are anything like the average savvy writer guy or gal, once you clicked on the floppy disk icon on your word processor and saved that idea file, believe me that would be the last time you'll ever set eyes on that file! It will just reside on your hard drive gathering internet pixie dust. We have a solution - you can turn your cheap ideas into gold by putting them where you can see them and remember to use them. Write them down in - The Writer's Idea Book; a tangible book you can pick up whenever you want and wherever you are. It is bold and attractive and will compel you to use it. Your idea's, become alive through your writing! Grab your copy now and keep those ideas where you can see them! You are one idea away from a best seller!

Unlock your creativity.
