You've spent this past month developing your habit of daily writing. Next week when you reach your goal you can stop and be fully satisfied with what you've accomplished. I want you to keep writing.

In the end, you are on every page of your book. People will know things about you that you never knew you were revealing.

Even in a book about coding, I do think of my code examples as characters. They grow in a way that, I hope, the reader will be interested in following.

At some point you'll find that your book has a life of its own.

Help your readers out by setting the context. You are helping them fill in a map. You know the entire lay of the land and how everything fits together.

Every once in a while lead your readers into a brick wall. Show them how this example that should have worked didn't work and what they need to do to fix it.

What parts of your prose would benefit from an image? What images do you use that you could just as easily remove?

You need a dynamic range—you need to mix things up.

What kind of hooks do you leave for your readers. Let them know where you are heading and where you've been. Remind them that they've seen something before or reassure them that they don't have to understand something completely now because you'll come back to it later.

Remember that what you've written over two weeks, your reader will read in a couple of hours. The material you wrote yesterday followed two weeks of thinking intensely about your topic. You are familiar and maybe getting a little tired of your topic. The reader is still fresh.
