any updated answers?

I would like to write a book before I die, something that will live on after me that will reflect my ideas and the way I thought.
every time I read a biography or a book or learn something from a person that died like 500 years ago, it gets me thinking that... the man is dead, yet he continues to influence people, his name keeps circling around. Dead famous people sometimes have a greater influence than living ones on people, sometimes you read a book written by a dead author and it completely changes you, I think in a figurative way at least, a person that influences, that imprints parts of himself into another person does not really die like the rest of the humans.
