Civ 4/ Writing

Ok, so i have been playing a game called Civ 4(Civilization 4) I have to say it is one of the most addicting games you can probably play...the first time i got it, i was confused about all you can do yet i couldnt stop playing it! It was neat, never played a game like it. Then again i'm not a huge fan of Turn based Games...but when it comes to Civ 4, it's still fun!
For me, the fun in the game is being able to control an empire, chosing who you can war with, or who you want to ally with, having complete control on what to do. I mean, a lot of war games you choose who you want to battle...before you start playing. This game..you can choose as you are playing..and if you do war with people..you can eventually make peace...etc...for all of you civ fans you know what i am talking about...for any of you who havent played civ....you should...its fun. (civ 4 is newest one)

Now, on to a different topic. I realllly enjoy writing. I've written stories for many years. I plan on publishing books. Its something i really wanna do. Right now i'm working on one. And ontop of that i found an AWESOME book making program called booksmart which you can download from blurb.com which has all the books people actually make usuing booksmart. Then you can buy it from blurb.com once you've uploaded it to gthe site from booksmart, and have your book in a book format. I found it really neat. Its a type of publishing too..cuz you can set your price...and have other ppl buy it too! The difference is...one, its not techniqly published published and two..its not on the shelves. But its still in book format!
