Books

How do authors get their inspiration for new books? Thanks for answering!!!

I don’t know how other authors get inspiration, but in my case, it’s usually generated by curiosity. I’ve had seven books of non-fiction published, and each began when I started to wonder about something. A little research, then a little more, and first thing you know, a story was shaping itself.
It was a little different when I decided to try fiction – that mainly involved creating my character, getting to know her really well, and then imagining how she might react in different situations. And gradually, this wound itself into a storyline.

Hi i am planning to give three exams (F5, F6, F7) of ACCA course in june 2011 but i haven’t baught new book and i am still using old books of 2010. so please give me details about each of subjects changes so i can know that which books i have to buy otherwise i planning to use old books except F6.

Hello,

For F6,it’s recommended to buy new books due certain and additional changes(Like Inheritance tax) in the syllabus and tax rates. The answers in the exam kit also may differ,so it’s better to buy new books:)

For F5 and F7, take a look at the syllabus and compare,then judge by yourself if whether you need to change the book or not.

Like do ya’ll know if shes currently working on any new books or has there been any talk about more to come from her? I’ve almost run out of her books..and im really sad! theyre soo good and really want to read a new one. Thanks in advance.
oh my gosh! thank you! ive been going crazyy over her books!

YES!

I’m not sure when it’s supposed to be coming out — I think the summer of 2011.
Don’t hold me to that, but if you want to check go to her website sarahdessen.com

I absolutely LOVE her books, she’s the reason I want to be an author.

I’ve running out of books to read (I buy many at a time and read them all) and I was hoping that some people would give me suggestions
I am capable of reading higher levels. Does not have to be ‘Young Adult’
I am tired of seeing vampire books so don’t suggest those please?
I did read Twilight. I love Harry Potter. I read the classics, and I prefer books that have a meaning and make you think.
I am, however, open to new things.
Please and Thank You!

i am also 16.. i love jane austen, i onw everything she ever published… a farewell to arms by ernest hemmingway is amazing…stephenie meyers book the host is pretty good and not about vampires, rebecca by daphne du maurier is an amazing story, it will definitely make you think…i am a big reader so its really hard to choose, just do yourself a favor and do not read anything by steinbeck. les miserables is also an amazing story.
