I have a blueprint that I follow when I want to write a new eBook.
Start by asking yourself the following questions and write down your answers.
1: What is the main focus of your eBook. What do you want the reader to learn from reading it?
2: What kind of research do you need to do to find a quality solution to this?
3: What is the best order to present your information so that the reader is taken step by step to a logical solution?
Now, as you answer these questions you will build the outline of your eBook.
Next, I always do the following:
4: Write a mission statement of why you are writing the eBook.
5: Write out what makes your eBook different from all the rest. Do you have new or exclusive information that solve a problem? Is your format of the information better and easier to read? Are you offering some type of special offer?
6: Using all the information above and your research, write out a table of contents so you have a picture in your mind and on paper the flow the book will take.
7: Once the table of contents is completed, look for ways to make the chapter titles into interest catching headlines. For example: instead of Chapter 1: Selling your eBook. Use: 7 Secrets To Explode Your eBook Sales!
8: Write your eBook introduction. Include a brief description of who the eBook is for and what they will learn from it.
9: Write the forward to your eBook. Explain why you are writing the Ebook and how you used the information to solve a problem you were having. Include a personal story as this helps the reader connect with you and draws them into the material.
10: Write out the closing statement to your eBook. When you know how your eBook will start and end, it is easier to fill in the material that takes you from start to finish.
11: Create a plan of action to finish writing your eBook. Make the commitment to put aside time each day to work exclusively on your eBook. Build a schedule and a timeline for each step. The more detailed you are and document the process, the more likely you are to follow through and finishing a quality product.
12: Reread your eBook and correct grammar, punctuation and typographical errors. Have someone that you trust, but will also be honest with you read and comment on your eBook.
