Should I do it?

So recently I have been going through a yoshi phase. I had been playing yoshi's island for the past week, and an idea came to me. What if I wrote a book based on the game. With it being a diary that yoshi writes telling about what happens throughout the game, writing as I play. I had even thought of writing something referencing the game it's self (yoshi mentioning how someone in the distant future might make some sort of game based on the story). 

So my question is, do you think this would be something worth trying?

If you want to, and it's for fun, then yeah definitely. If you're thinking about publishing or something of the like, then.....maybe not so much. I doubt something like that would get published by mainstream agencies 

I'm told that I talk about publishing too much, so apologies if that's not what you meant

[ModerndayLink]

Yeah, it's just for fun. If I tried publishing, Nintendo would probably sue me . Besides idk how to publish a book In The first place.

[Piatzin]

Then go ahead

And yeah, publishing is tricky...

[ModerndayLink]

Seriously, idk if I'm legally allowed to publish my own book

Not sure what you mean there

We certainly can't stop you. If it's something you're willing to do, and you want to do it, then go ahead.

Well, Andy Weir released The Martian as a free novel on the .net, but look what happens now...

(yes I know it's different haha, still makes the point though)
