On Writing Nonfiction


Someone asked me if writing was easy.

Book Writing Facts:  Writing takes serious dedication, self motivation, and pure insane determination.

What did it take to write:

The Vikings : The Story of a People by Njord Kane (My latest release, BUY IT!!)

Published release: September 14, 2015
Total writing and editing time: 1207 hours, 56 minutes, 45 
seconds
Total times opened writing program to work on book: 2912

Number of paragraphs: 1132

Writing nonfiction is an even more insane endeavor.  When you're writing nonfiction, such as history - you can NOT write a single thing, unless you have the data to back it - PROOF!  Not one single sentence or piece of information can be written, unless you have the data to prove it.  This is why there are such long reference pages at the end of these books with footnotes. EVERYWHERE in almost every paragraph is a number linking each piece of data to the information written in the main body.

Where can you get this book that the writer worked so hard to publish? ...everywhere in all formats: eBook, Paperback, and hardcover.
