Since I am bored and don’t want to do much but stare at a screen and I’m a good writer, it follows that I should write a book. The trouble is that I can’t come up with a topic. You guys know me. What should I write about?
All the trouble the bible has caused..

I was also thinking, riding a bike, indoors or outdoors, for an hour or two everyday should help with boredom a lot. Many years ago I used go for a run, then immediately take out the bike and ride. I miss those days.

Also, some people run a marathon length run multiple days a week. That sounds like a challenge.

Some Bible memorization could be good too. I'd start with Romans 3 and 4, which teach that salvation is without works but by faith alone, that the sins of believers are covered past, present and future, and that even Abraham was justified by faith.
Prudence is the knowledge of things to be sought, and those to be shunned.

12 Months in the Bando - a comedy-drama about a young man from New Zealand who takes up a job in a public high school in Korea.

Jimmy Jensen's life is in tatters, his mum kicks him out of the house after moving her Samoan bouncer lover in and he loses his savings as he gains just three votes in the local council elections for Papatoetoe for the National Socialist Party of New Zealand - thus losing his deposit.

Jimmy searches for jobs and a place online and finds that Korea will give him both, a week later he is given an airline ticket and he is off to Korea.

There, he experiences culture shock, alienation and the confusion of wanting a white world but getting hard-ons looking at Korean 18 year olds in short skirts - especially the ones who are giving him the glint of their eyes. Set in Auckland and some industrial shithole on the outskirts of Seoul.

Jimmy is forced to learn the Haka for a parents evening, beats up/or gets beaten up by the hardest male student in the school, learns to love kimchi, makes friends with a load of Canadian douchebags outside the local 7/11, gets drunk with them, goes on roadtrips with them, gets a girlfriend in the former of some fat kinky British slag, loses his girlfriend and Canadian friends because he can't keep his racism to himself, learns Korean - he might get one of his High School students pregnant... or he might not... loads of scope for such a story.


If you do it in the first person narrative - you can do it! Get at least 200 pages out of it, let me know when you publish it on Amazon, I will buy it! :D
That's pretty funny, but my actual life is funnier. But then I don't think much of my actual life is worth writing about. I want it to get better.
I suggest you work on having a better life, and not spend time writing a fictional book. Spent that time improving your life. Once you got an exciting life then write about it or something else. :D
