Has anyone here ever seen (Or own?) a book called "The World of LEGO Toys"? The local library here has it.
I put it in at amazon and came up with 12 for sale. They range in price form $12 to $85. I would get one but I am poor

Hmm...

I'm not sure if you mean write about the lego products, or write a story based on or using legos...

Anyway, if you mean the latter, then the answer is yes. Actually, that's how started becoming an AFOL. I always wrote fantasy stories in High School and College, but wished I had a visual aid... with Legos, I find myself creating stories in my head just by building.

I've actually started small, but written a story. Problem is I can't get my 3megapixel camera to create a clear image of single minifigs, or anything close-up at all, actually. :-( I have to wait till I can buy a 5 megpixel camera I suppose, which of course is not cheap.

I have written some stories about LEGO Castle when I was 8-12. Right now I'm not writing one though. The most recent one was a year ago. It never got finished.

They were mostly about MY own LEGO guys. They had names, had adventures, etc. etc. etc.

I never pubished them of course. They were small stories mostly 20-30 pages long. I HAD a copy of one. I think I lost it though. I usaully type them on the computer and then print them out.
Space rocks.
