If you have never written a book before, this is great for moving yourself beyond the blank page.

Enter your email and download Bob�s audio interview. It is a little staged and long winded (doesn�t really get to the important bits until 6 minutes have passed), but he does make some important points.

1. Not many people write books, so if you do, you will be an expert. He is talking about How to ... and specialist work related books. I wanted to write child fiction, but it did make me think that there are actually a lot of these types of books that I could write.
2. Most people will not read a 500 page book, so don�t feel you have to write one this long. If you do, make it into 2 books.
3. Break the book down into subjects (chapter headings 20-25 if you can), put them in some logical order, cross out the 5 weakest, write 10 questions that need answering in each chapter and then spend 5 minutes answering each question as fast as you can. Do this 1 hour a day and your 1^st draft is done in a month. Obviously 2 hours a day will finish it in 2 weeks. Editing is far easier than writing from scratch.
