Finally i have created my first item in this Job system.
So please, someone who knows, tell me, what should i do with an "Empty Book (420)"?
Or what can i do with it? Maybe someone need it? Because i can't even sell it (it costs allmost 0).

Give it a nice name, and some nice description, and sell it for lots of money. I suggest you specialise in raunchy articles that defame any well-known character. Examples: "The Foul Deeds of Torin Starfall", "Gurth Balmor And The Choirboys", "Inside Robert of Caris' Private Torturechamber", "Xaviera's Frigidity Exposed", etc etc.

It may make you a few enemies, but who cares!?

Disco, you have no idea what you just did. Now I am forced to make a tabloid journalist with a very flexible relationship to facts.

Now you're this guy:

Regarding the item, though, it is a great RP tool. With custom descriptions and titles, you can write your character's treatise, or any number of hundreds of topics. People will very likely buy it for its uniqueness.

You mean he's William "Bill" Hurst, Editor in Chief of the Amian Recorder, Clairon of the Commonwealth?

You mean you love Yossarin, who is the genius behind that name.

It can be hard to write entertainingly in a foreign language. Keep practising! You'll only get better.

And if you want, you could always find some scribes that would be more than willing to buy empty pages and tomes.

The guy in the picture is William Randolph Hurst. He was a big newspaper tycoon back during the heyday of what's known as "yellow journalism." Essentially very low-quality articles with little to no fact-checking, designed more to cater towards peoples' desire for gossip and scandal than actual newsworthy information.

Sorry, but I have to admit I love Yossarin's clever homages of various names in his NPCs and the like.
