wanting to write

The other day my boyfriend mentioned that he wants to write a book.  That he's been thinking about it for years.  He told me the basic line of it.  I was so interested.  More so that he had a desire to write.  That is what interested me the most.  I know he's different.  He's thoughtful and considerate and has empathy. These things are part of what makes a good writer.  I have thought for years about writing some kind of book.  I've tossed around ideas for years.  A memoir, science fiction or possibly erotica.  I am going to put more serious thought into this.
