Creation of books
Hi, how do you create these books ? Do you imagine them or do you copy/paste texts you found in other places ?

Hey, I'm just using the creation kit to be as creative as possible. (potential spoiler) Right now I'm finding covers available from the kits contents and then making titles that match. so if theres one that I can make with teeth I can make it about dentistry in skyrim, one with a picture of a moon is about the lunnar cycles etc.
I'm still looking for more sorces for content and a couple of people have come forward to help, so the content should improve.
There's no copy pasting with content, so it's alot of typing.

I can get hold of other skins and make covers for most subjects ;)

I have a ton of mythological lore to be tapped, real life lore, not gamimng lore. I have a masters degree in some of this stuff. I am not a big fan of writing, but I can do it well. If anything in that area can be helpful, let me know what you may want written.

Um, I have an idea for the Dark Clouds book. Why not put the different kinds of storm clouds in it? You could probably copy the text you want/need right out of Wikipedia or something.

You want just a pic of a moon? A crescent or anything special? I have a pic with all the moon cycles on it. Teeth..yuck ..I can look for a tooth.
No one has a mages Grimoire, or Book of Shadows, that would be nice. A book on "familiars", but since regular type things like cats , toads, and such are lacking..I guess that is out. Unicorn lore is possible, there are modded unicorns. Iffy I guess.

A lore book on the origins of Reiklings would be nice, I don't think there is a real good one.

A book explaining why Hagravens came out so..wrong...would be fun to attempt. Kynareth was having an off day when she made them.

Hey, Poet and Prose writer here. If you want a few books filled with short 1 - 2 page stories/poems to make it easier on you, or if you want some detailed books, I can hash up the needed content and essay it in no time. I REALLY like how these books look, they just need a little oomph. I'd be happy to help.

I found something for content! A Khajiit's Guide to Skyrim. It is a sarcastic guide pointing out obvious things in Skyrim from the viewpoint and grammar pattern of a Khajiit. It can be found here and I would dearly love to see it as a book in game.

If you can't do it or don't have the time, a pointer to a guide on how to make custom books in the creation kit would be greatly appreciated.
