A book is not just a book.

A book isn't just a book. Not to the author anyway. A great deal is put into writing that story; time, thought, research, skill. A story is not only written once, it is edited and re-written many times before it is available in the stores. Many decisions have to be made during the writing and development process, making it quite an involved and complicated process. It is a great accomplishment to write and have a book published. Something to be truly proud of.
