Is Your Family History Good Enough To Write About?

Oh I would love to write a book but I don't think I would have enough to write about but I did write a little story about someone I really cared about and it was to be given to this person if anything ever happed to me as I wanted him to know the whole story of my feelings, a life long love, but he passed away not long after, I showed a couple of people and they said what a goos movie it would make, so because this person was an entertainer I actually got the urge to do a tribute website for him and I started it off with a little part of my story so people could how much he was loved and the reasom why I was putting the webpage up..

What a lovely idea. I have been researching my family history and have found it facinating but would never have thought to write about it. I should think your novel will be very interesting as you have so much background information that you can use. Perhaps this is something I should think about; there are parts in my family history that could be made into a story. Thank you for sharing the idea and hope your book does well.

I wish I knew enough about my grandparents to write their story. My father didn't really tell many stories about his family. My dad passed away two years ago and I am learning a lot more about him now that he is gone. I wish I had asked him questions when he was alive. I've been asking my mom questions; she has known my dad since they were 13 and 14. My dad was an amazing man and I would love to write his life story. He was very humble and really didn't brag about all the good things he was doing. Even my mother is learning things about him that she didn't know... stuff he has done in business and volunteer work. For anyone whose parents are still alive, be sure to ask your parents about their past... before it's too late.

My family has a famous history and it might be fun to write. Unfortunately I neither have the talent nor the stamina to write so it will have to be up to other members of my family to give it a go. Cheers!!

I have quite an interesting ancestry - something about a lost soldier that never went back to Spain when he was here in the Philippines. And another from the other side of the family, are the forefathers of the province we now live in :D It's actually cool and the details are even better. I think I WILL write something about it someday. But not anytime soon. I would have to do a little more digging to make things more interesting. Thanks for commenting in my discussion!
