There was only one thing that worked for me to finish my first book. I showed up every day and wrote something. Then I edited the hell out of it (like 8 passes). The rough draft was 100+ pages. The final version is 64. There is no shortcut to writing and editing a book. You have to put a lot of time in and just write the damn book. My book if you're interested: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0163BAUWC http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0163BAUWC
