I wrote for newspapers and played at being a managing editor for a while but found that I had a talent for explaining complex technical issues to non-technical folks. Most of the stand alone writings were something best described as "monographs." (Someday I may even learn to spell again.)
The only fiction I have ever tried (outside of the sci-fi, c&w, porno screen play) was a kids book that is now in its tenth year of first draft.
The old chestnut was that "if you can read this sentance you can read a whole book" morphs into "if you can write a whole post you can write a book."
