Guest post by Nicole Weaver, author of 'Not All Americans Are Racist'

Writing is fun.  I have learned the best way to get better at writing is for you to read a ton of books, and to write every day.  As for ideas, I live life and the ideas come to me. I usually write the thoughts that come my way in the note section of my phone.  I know it is a good idea, if the words flow easily from my mind.  When I sit down to write a manuscript I can usually tell right away if  I have enough to actually write an entire book, for instance, when I started writing Not All Americans Are Racist, I was able to write 1,500 words in one hour. The thoughts kept coming and I continued to write until I was done. The same is true for my next book.  I have already written 10,000 words. I got the idea while driving to work and that night I sat down and wrote a couple chapters.

About the book:
In Not All Americans Are Racist, Nicole Weaver recounts her experiences with racial discrimination and the non-racist white individuals who made it possible for her to attend and finish college. As an immigrant from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, she is thankful for the opportunities America has offered her.
