Good progress on my book!

I am happy to report that I am making good progress on my book.  The mind mapping exercise proved effective and I managed to get clarity on the structure.  The book is now organised into clear chapters.  It has a clear structure and I am now working through each chapter.  I aim to spend 30 minutes per day on the book.  I do that most days.  Not a huge time commitment but it does add up and 3 months on from my last post I have made good progress.  I still find the process of writing boring.  The exciting part is seeing the book come together.

Mind Mapping

At the moment I am Mind Mapping my e-book.  I find the process very useful.  For the first time I am starting to have clarity about the structure of my e-book.  Mind mapping is an excellent way of structuring your thoughts.  A really useful software programme which I recommend you use is XMind.  You can download and start using the free version of XMind straight away and upgrade to the paid version later if you want.  The paid version has extra functionality however I am happily using the free version.  Please click on the following link to take you to the XMind site:  http://www.xmind.net/
