Audio Book by Yours Truly...
I have been saying that I am going to write a book. I am not sure if I can actually write a book like some of my friends could, but I like to say I am going to try. It seems to me that I might be too ADHD (even though I do not have that) to sit down and write a quality book.
The other day, however, TJ told me I should write a book on cd - or an audio book. He, obviously, was just joking. The weird thing is that one of my co-workers also told me that I should write a book on cd. She would like to listen to a book I would write, but would not read it. She would also like me to be the one to narrate my book. Similar to that of John Hodgman - you all would know his as the PC in the Mac commercials - if you do not know him from his audio book.
Now, I need to determine if I should start writing my audio book - I could actually just start recording it. I am positive that I could talk for at least 2 hours about interesting topics. What are your thoughts...loyal readers...should I write or record an audio book?
I look forward to your responses!

Awesome idea! My suggestion - at the very least, organize your thoughts into some kind of an outline before you just start recording. Just from my experience writing songs - it's always easier to get everything laid out in front of you before you "go for it". :-p
I'm super-excited to read (or listen) to your book. :-)
You should DEFINITELY write an audiobook. That can be your money making idea and we can all say we knew you when...
Write a book. You have a lot of time(ha ha!) to spare with all your other activities.
Might be interesting. I agree with Nick organize before you start and get it all together to exhibit your best effort.

"Write" an audiobook just feels wierd to me. I guess you would write it and then read it, but still, it just doesn't sound right.
I think you should just keep a tape recorder with you and whenever you go off about something record it, then you can organize it into book form later. I think the randomness and "daily diary/deep thoughts by Lindsay" feel of it would be really cool.
