Then, before starting a sentence, I came up with ten points I wanted to cover in each chapter. That took care of all writer's block! Every day, I'd go to the current chapter and bang out the details of 2-3 of the ten points, finishing a chapter every 4-5 days of effort.

4) See, I'm not good at this and don't want to do it again.
5) Return to step 1 Read more of this blog post »
