1 about to: 'The President is about to give a press conference' means that the President will give a press conference very soon, in a few moments. We use the phrase 'to be about to' to refer to an action planned or predicted for the very near future. For example: 'Please stop talking. I am about to lose my patience with you.'
1 about: This sentence doesn't make sense without the word 'to'.
2 about: 'Nobody knows what it will be about' means that nobody knows what the topic or subject of the press conference will be. 'About' in this context means 'relating to', 'concerning'. Another example: -I'm writing a love story. -Cool, what's it about? -Erm, love.
2 about to: We cannot use 'about to' in this context. 'About to' is always foilowed by a verb, and it indicates that something will happen very soon. For example: 'That bomb is about to explode!'.
3 bring about: 'To bring about' means to cause or trigger something. For example: 'The government's policy change has brought about a series of protests'.
3 come about: 'Come about' is an intransitive verb, meaning that it cannot have an object. If something 'comes about', then it happens, or is caused. For example: 'How did this problem come about?'.

1 come about: 'How did the idea come about?' means 'How did the idea start existing?' or 'What caused the idea?'. 'To come about' is a phrasal verb meaning 'to happen'. Another example: 'Her promotion came about after that successful project'.
1 bring about: 'To bring about' means to cause or trigger something. It cannot be used without an object. For example: 'It's time to bring about some changes'.
1 go about: An idea cannot 'go about'; this doesn't mean anything in English. 'Go about' is mostly used as part of the phrase 'to go about one's business', meaning 'to carry on as normal' or 'to do one's regular things'. For example: 'Pay no attention to me, I'm just the inspector. Please go about your business.'

2 in: A person cannot 'think in herself' in English; this doesn't mean anything!

3 should I: We cannot use 'should I' immediately before a verb ending in '-ing' ('writing'). Ivana might have said: 'Should I write a book?'.
3 why not: We cannot use 'why not' immediately before a verb ending in '-ing' ('writing'). Ivana might have said: 'Why not write a book?'.
4 about: Ivana considered writing a book 'just about herself', meaning that she would be the exclusive subject of the book. If a book is 'about' something, then it concerns or relates to it. Another example: 'Last night I watched a movie about alternatives to capitalism'.
4 to: A book cannot be 'to' something, though it could be 'dedicated to' or 'given to' someone. For example: 'I dedicate this novel to my late wife, Nina'.
4 over: A book cannot be 'over' something; this doesn't mean anything in English!
5 about to: The journalist thinks she is 'about to win the Pulitzer Prize': this means that she thinks she will win a prize for journalism very soon. Another example: 'I think I'm about to faint from exhaustion'.
