Part 1
The hardest part of writing is the first sentence. When you look at the whole project, it seems like an impossible task. That's why you have to break it down into manageable tasks. Think of climbing a mountain. You are starting at the foot of it and looking up at it's summit vanishing in the clouds. How can you possibly scale such an immense and dangerous mountain?
There is only one way to climb a mountain - step by step.
Now think of writing your ebook in the same light. You must create it step by step, and one day, you will take that last step and find yourself standing on the summit with your head in the clouds.
The first thing you have to do, as if you actually were a mountain climber, is to get organized. Instead of climbing gear, however, you must organize your thoughts. Once you've gone through the following list, you will be ready to actually begin writing your ebook.
Until next time. We will start into the steps. We love to read your comments.

Hi Dan & Deanna,
Yes, the first step the most important! But, it is just as important to keep going and not stop until your goal is achieved.
Thanks for your post!

Peter, that is so true. If you quite in the middle you will never know what might have happened with your dreams and goals, and how far they might have taken you.

Hilary, good luck with ezine articles. There are other places to put them beside that one if that one does not take it try another one. Go for it you will do a good job.

Hi Dan and Deanna,
"There is only one way to climb a mountain - step by step."
Love your analogy of writing an ebook to climbing a mountain. Much like anything in life, it always requires those first steps. But even the tiniest steps are still steps in the right direction. :-)
We look forward to reading your upcoming posts and learning more great tips.
Many Blessings....
