Writing my first book

When all else fails you write a book about it. If the thought of turning into one of those story telling people didn't scare me as much I would have started writing long ago. You see, books are a kind of failure, it is what happens when you know things that are worth knowing but can not put them to good use. Being a good writer isn't the success one should aim for, writing isn't about the writer, if anyone it is the reader who is of interest. This is where I tell you that readers are incredible un-reasonable people, like the rock star one does best by giving the audience things they already know. They will speak favorably of you if you do. Then there should be a kind of categorical flattering for the reader who chose to read my work. The rock star should also do every radio interview, sign autographs and make public appearances as often as possible. Those are the things that will make people speak highly of the writer.
