1. Set a daily quota of at least 5 minutes to work on your book. I did this myself and i found that i rarely do only 5 minutes.
2. Have a small notebook with you all the time and write your ideas during the day. For me this was working much better than the notes on my phone, must me some magic leaking from the real pen.
3. Read other similar books and see what can you do better than them.
4. Study the last researches on the subject about which you started to write. Some real numbers make you look like a mad scientist. In a good way.
5. Somehow find a way to make you book more interactive. People like to do their part.
6. Make an offer to your readers that they cannot refuse. Like for example "If you have not loved my book write to this email and i will send your money back. You can keep the book too."
7. When you write, use the unique experience that you and only you achieved in some unheard niche.
8. Meet and talk with the lead experts about your book subject 'grey' areas.
9. Writing is not only inspiration. Sometime you need to work on it. But motivation and the right state of mind help. Reach your peak state of mind and start writing. Good. Bad. Doesn't matter as long as you keep going. Continuity is essential.
10. Graphic is important. We talk about the first impression here. If you are not happy with your skills, use a professional. Is worth it.
