Would anyone like to join in the creation of a history book???
I am covering BC history, and will cover some of the crusades. But if anyone wants to do Pre-History, or AD history... It's WIDE open, and I plan on publishing, so you would get your name on the front for free, plus whatever portion of the book you write as payment. I do want final edit though, because I want this book to be something that interests kids. I want it to be a history book that kids ASK for, so I don't want someone just filling pages with boring facts, just gloss over the boring stuff and maybe put an interesting picture of it. They can get boring from the teachers in school.

I would be willing to do all of the editing and proofreading in return for a share of all income from the writing (both in Devcoins from Devtome and in whatever sales occur). I went through your current posting on Devtome and it has a lot of work needed before it can be a viable source for teaching.
I'll offer up the same deal to anyone else that is interested as well!
I'm gonna be doing the editing and proof reading, I'm just looking for people that want to write about history.
What you are reading is a rough draft, and even that is in its early stages.
I just realized, maybe this doesn't make complete sense, so I'll explain. The rough draft is so far a summary of 3 books, eventually it will be a summary of 200 books. So it's just a work in progress right now, not even a complete rough draft. Even the longest section of the book (Hannibal) is going to be a small section compared to the section about his nation (Carthage). And I haven't even started talking about his nation yet.
It's fine. I was just finding one grammatical and spelling error after another in it so I figured I'd offer up my services.
Best of luck with the project!
That, and paragraphs are basically non existent (and Cathiginian is spelt wrong almost every time). I'll fix it all before I am done with the project.
