Why is the word "ambulance" spelled backwards on the front of ambulances?
Wow! So many answers and almost all of them wrong!This is not due to “laws of reflection in physics”. Mirrors do not reverse left and right. Think about it: how would a mirror distinguish left and right from up and down, which is not reversed? A mirror has no built-in sense of gravity. Mirrors still work in space! In fact, a mirror only reverses “in and out”, i.e. around the plane of the mirror, which is the only preferred plane a mirror can have. Also consider: you see the initial letter A of “ambulance” on your left in the mirror and that’s where the letter A behind you actually is when you are looking straight ahead, so again left and right are not reversed. You can read more about this here.So what about the ambulance? What you are seeing is indeed an “in out” inversion. Imagine the ambulance was made of glass. What does the ambulance driver see? He sees the lettering on the front the right way round. What’s more, if he was able to see the reflection of the word Ambulance in your rear view mirror, it would still be right way round.Imagine then that the ambulance overtakes you. Now you see the lettering the right way round too… BUT NOTHING FLIPPED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AS YOU WERE OVERTAKEN. The lettering was always the right way round.But, you may object, if you turn your head to look at the writing on an ambulance behind you, it looks wrong way round. Yes, but that wasn’t the mirror doing a reversal — that was you turning your head. The mirror just allows you to see it without turning your head.

Life Advice: How can I make my life simpler?
I added the first item in my list in a comment above, but I will put it here as well, and add some other things. Buy well-made items the first time around (and do your homework to find the right thing the first time). This goes for appliances, clothing, electronics, etc. These things will cost you more at the outset, but will end up costing you less in the long run, both in terms of money and time. They will also contribute less to the overwhelming amount of stuff in landfills (which are especially clogged these days from castoffs of "fast fashion" clothing). Decide what you really do need to buy. Try not to buy, for example, kitchen appliances and gear that only do one thing, and decide if you really do need yet another thing that plugs in. Heat up leftovers on the stove instead of buying and using a microwave. Chop things by hand instead of buying and using a food processor. Buy clothes that truly fit well, and that are in a classic style (i.e. not things that will look dated in a season). Buy only what you really need for all the occasions for which you need to dress, and only what you need to have in between washing cycles. Get rid of physical media. Keep some of your favorite books (especially ones that really need to be touched and paged through, like art books and children's picture books), but get rid of most of them. Use the library and use ebooks. Get rid of CDs. With all the streaming music sources out there, you can even get rid of your mp3 collection and just stream anything you want to hear. Don't have a TV or a cable box. You don't have to live like a luddite, though, to live simply - have a nice, large monitor and a decent computer with a good, fast internet connection. Stream TV shows and movies you want to watch. If you must own a car, own one used one. Keep it in good running shape. Take care of it physically. But if you have an older "cockroach" car (e.g. most Toyotas and Hondas), you can keep that sucker running forever without thinking about it much and without worrying about every scratch and ding. If you can get away without a car, do so. Get yourself a nice commuter bike that fits you well (by "nice" I mean one that is built well with decent parts so it works well and you enjoy using it, without having to worry about it getting banged up or stolen). Rent an apartment, don't buy a house. Don't have a yard or building maintenance to deal with. Plumbing issue? It's not your problem to solve. The building needs painting? Who cares? Lawn needs mowing? Not by you. Your neighbors get too annoying or your neighborhood starts to go downhill? Move when your lease is up. Purge, relentlessly purge things you just don't need and aren't sure you want anymore. An easy way to do this is to have a "holding area" for things you think you might want to get rid of but aren't sure you can commit to chucking. The holding area can be part of a closet, an unused stairway landing, etc. Make sure it's neat and self-contained. Put things there that you think you probably don't want anymore. If you're fine with them out of your life after a week or so, donate them. Have fewer things sitting out on surfaces in your place of dwelling. And pick up after yourself and put things away when you're done with them. Reducing clutter really helps one feel calmer. And it's a great incentive to get rid of things you're just tired of cleaning or putting away all the time (especially if they just don't give you enough pleasure for the annoyance they cause). Have one credit card. Let's be honest - in this day and age, you do need a credit card. But you don't need five. Pay off and close out the others as soon as possible. This will really help you know exactly what you've spent on what, and where your debt lies. Make sure that you have that one credit card set up with electronic statements only (and have email reminders sent if you need them). That reduces random crap that comes in the mail, and also helps you really to figure out the status of your spending (I find that paper statements are oftentimes difficult to read, and you can't just click around on them to get more information). The same goes for bank accounts and debit cards. Have a savings and a checking/debit account at one bank. Keep track of these accounts electronically.Collect all your mail, put it in a bin, and sort it once a week. There's no need to go through snail mail every day (if something is urgent, it's not going to be sent by snail mail). For a long-term project, go through your junk mail and call/email each place to unsubscribe from their mailing lists so you eventually have to deal with less paper crap in your life. Keep your email inbox empty. Answer emails immediately, if possible. When that's not possible, immediately "quarantine" these emails into an "action" folder to be dealt with later. Label and archive everything else that you want to be able to find later. Make filters so certain "bacon" items (i.e. spam that you've signed up for, like mailing lists - things that you might want to look at, but are not top priority) go straight to folders to be gone through once or twice a week. Obviously, use gmail. Don't get stuck staring at a screen more than you have to (she says, while typing up a long answer on Quora). Use social media if it makes you happy. But don't become a slave to it. No electronics after 10PM. **Edit for a couple more things I thought of:One electronic thing that I've found that IS worth owning is a small document scanner. The Fujitsu ScanSnap is amazing. It's tiny and it works fantastically well. We use it to scan all the files that one needs to keep track of and that would otherwise have to exist in paper form in a filing cabinet. The first time around, scanning everything took a long time; then again, we DID get rid of an entire large filing cabinet's worth of papers and stuff (as well as the filing cabinet itself). And now we put important papers and such in a folder to be scanned about once every month or two, and we keep this digital filing cabinet in the cloud (Dropbox works well). Not only does that help you get rid of a lot of papers, but you can also find things so much more easily when you need to (e.g. for insurance purposes, taxes, etc). I've also used this to scan written mementos (e.g. holiday cards, postcards that I want to see again, written notes) that I don't want to get rid of completely, but that I also don't want to have in a big bin in my house. We have one small container (one of those 6-8" deep file bin things) for papers one HAS to keep (e.g. car titles, birth certificates), and a couple of small shoeboxes of physical mementos. And that's it. Get rid of as many annoying errands as you can. If you have a bit of room, stock up on annoying cleaning supplies and paper goods at Costco or the like. Order other annoying household type things from Amazon (yes, I know, there's a trade-off here in that local businesses don't get the revenue from things you've ordered from Amazon. At the same time, spending an hour to get to and from a store to get dish soap can really suck the life out of you). Rather spend that errand time enjoying shopping for good food, patronizing local businesses for high-quality items (e.g. things that are NOT, say, dish soap), spending time doing things you actually WANT to do. Consider observing the sabbath, or a sabbath-like day to some extent. This doesn't have to involve religion. But enforcing some strict rules on yourself regarding what you are and are not allowed to do for 24 hours can really get you out of the constant complexities of modern life. A sabbath-like day should be a day of rest, a day devoid of work of all kinds. Obviously, you can choose to follow the judaic tradition or you can make up some rules yourself. But the general idea that you're not to use electronic devices, that you're not to do any work, that you're not to finish anything, that you're not to write anything, that you're not to clean or scrub anything completely changes the way you travel through your day. All this being said, enjoy yourself. Live simply to allow yourself more time and energy to actually go out and do things, to read things, to learn things, to make things, to spend time with people, to exercise, to travel. I think too many people equate "living simply" with being a complete ascetic. I think that my family and I live quite simply (though we're always trying to get a bit better at it), yet we are not monks. We love having nice clothing that makes us feel spiffy (some of it used/vintage, some of it new), we love eating excellent food, we enjoy having certain electronics that work really well and that add to our lives, we love watching good TV and movies and listening to a variety of music, we love biking most places but taking the car when we have to (and we actually also love our 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser with more than 350000 miles on it), we really enjoy having nice, well-made athletic equipment that makes our athletic endeavors more enjoyable. Could we get on without much of that? Sure. But we are also not in a race to live in a yurt in the middle of nowhere (which is a completely lovely option for those who wish to do just that).

What's the best way to increase productivity?
Productivity is largely about changing your mindset and habits. I don’t want to give you a bunch of tricks, tips and hacks because if you don’t fix the underlying foundation, nothing will change. Sure, you’ll be more productive for a day or two, but you’ll soon go back to the way things were.Productivity isn’t about time management (that’s a misnomer) – it’s about self-management. Here are some of my best tips for managing your self and becoming more productive.Build your day around your toughest tasks, then do those things first.Identify your top one or two most pressing tasks, then tackle those first. You have the most willpower and motivation in the morning, which means your likelihood of completing those things is the highest. The other benefit to this is it creates a domino effect – once you get your most important things done, you can use that momentum to complete your other tasks.Create a “stop doing” list.We’ve all been taught to create a to-do list. But just as important as the things you are doing, you must stop doing certain things. Learning to say “no” frees up a lot of your time. Steve Jobs said that what made Apple Apple was not so much what they chose to build but all the projects they chose to ignore. Stop checking your email first thing in the morning – protect the peak energy hours for your best work.Decide “Hell yes!” or “no.”One of the best pieces of advice along the same lines comes from Derek Sivers – when deciding on things, it should be a “hell yes!” or “no.” There is no in-between. This really helps you decide on what’s important and what’s not. Note: this can and should also be applied in other areas of your life too, like buying clothes for example. How many T-shirt have you bought and only worn once?Delegate the tasks you dread and the tasks that.I love the concept of “activation energy” – the effort that it takes to get something started. Once you start a task, it’s easy to keep going, but the hard part is starting! If you delegate those tasks with a high activation energy, you’ll be able to start gettings things done, then use that momentum to keep going and stay productive the entire day.Stop waiting for perfect conditions.There will never be a “perfect” time to do anything. Don’t wait to launch a project or start a task. Done is better than perfect Immediate action fuels a positive feedback loop that drives even more action.Eliminate the mess to eliminate the stress.Mess creates stress. Tennis icon Andre Agassi said he wouldn’t let anyone touch his tennis bag because if it got disorganized, he’d get distracted. Clean out the clutter in your office to get more done. Set up the conditions for productivity.Throw out your TV and unsubscribe from Netflix.It’s too easy to get caught up binging on Game of Thrones. The best way to make sure you don’t get caught waiting entire nights on junky TV is to not have a TV. Set up the conditions for productivity.Establish positive routines.Some of the most productive people (Tim Ferriss, Stephen King, Thomas Edison, etc.), follow strict daily routines. Every day, they know exactly when to get up, they know exactly when to start work, exercise, work, etc.. Peak productivity is not about luck. It’s about routine and devotion.Stop multi-tasking!New research confirms that all the distractions invading our lives are rewiring the way our brains work (and drop our IQ by 5 points!). Be one of the rare-air few who develops the mental and physical discipline to have a mono-maniacal focus on one thing for many hours. (It’s all about practice).Slow down to speed up.Get things right the first time because not doing your best work, causing you to re-do it will take 2x longer than it would have originally. People are wildly distracted, leading to mistakes. To unleash your productivity, become one of the special performers who have the mindset of doing what it takes to get it right first. This saves you days of having to fix problems.Ask for help.There’s no shame in asking for help. It actually shows maturity. And studies show they’re actually viewed by their colleagues as being smarter. Learning to ask for help and leveraging other people’s strengths could save you tons of time in the long run.Stop and reflect.Take a step back and see what’s working and what’s not. See what needs to be prioritized and what needs to be changed. Building in time to review isn’t wasting time, but optimizes your work moving forward. For more on post-project reflection, check out this post.Take a break!Sometimes, your brain just needs a break. If you’re feeling stuck on a particular problem or are feeling like you aren’t getting anything done, don’t fight or resist that feeling. Recognize that your body or mind is trying to tell you it’s overwhelmed, and go take a walk. Downtime makes you more productive by giving you more emotional resilience to the inevitable ups and downs at work, while also helping you to get some perspective on the problems you are trying to solve. So unless it’s an emergency, when you leave the office, leave it. Everything will be there when you get back.

What's the best way to self publish an e-book on social media, business, & self help?
I’ve been through the process of self-publishing on Kindle and learnt a few things. Now, I can share my tips, so you don’t make the same mistakes! I’m a commercially published author now, but I understand the frustrations of trying to break into conventional publishing, because it took me ten years to get my big break. [ http://graemeshimmin.com/a-kill-in-the-morning-shortlisted-for-terry-prachett-prize/ ] Before I got my publishing deal, I self-published a short story called Veronika, [ http://graemeshimmin.com/veronika-short-story/ ]using Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) with modest success – it has been in the Amazon top 50. Self publishing does have the advantage of getting your work out there, which can lead to attracting attention and sales. Why Self Publish on Kindle? Amazon’s two main competitors, Apple and Barnes & Noble, both claim to have gained a 20+% market share of the eBook market, leaving Amazon with something like 60%. But surveys of self-published authors have shown that Amazon’s share of self-published eBook sales is much higher – more like 80-85%. Whether the true figure is 60% or as high as 85%, Amazon is the biggest market by a long way, and KDP makes the process of self publishing on Kindle relatively easy. Self publish on Kindle: Step 1 – Your Book First you’ll need to sign up for KDP. Then you start by clicking Add a Title. The important options to fill in are: 1. Book name 2. Description (up to 4,000 characters – use it to sell your book to the reader) 3. Book contributors (you as the author) 4. Categories (whichever genres you are writing in) 5. Search keywords (up to 7, add the themes of the novel, don’t duplicate the categories) These other items can just be left blank/default: Subtitle, Series, Edition Number, Publisher, Language,Publication Date, ISBN. Verify Your Publishing Rights As you are self-publishing your own work, and so you have copyright, select This is not a public domain work and I hold the necessary publishing rights. Convert your book to Kindle format KDP accepts three main formats: * Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) * Ebook Formats (Html, Mobi, Epub) * signNow PDF It is possible to send Microsoft Word and signNow PDF documents direct to KDP, but the formatting is far from ideal if you do. If you want a really professional looking book then you should convert your book to Kindle’s HTML format yourself before uploading. I found the easiest solution was to convert the formatted manuscript [ http://graemeshimmin.com/manuscript-format-for-novel-submission/ ]into Kindle specific html. How to do this will be the subject of a separate answer. But, as we’re doing things the easy way for now, I suggest you just upload the manuscript and let Amazon reformat it for Kindle. Use Kindle Previewer If you have created an HTML format file then you can use Kindle Previewer, a downloadable Kindle emulator, to check how your book will look on various types of Kindle . What I found was that without careful tweaking, my book looked good on one type of Kindle but not on others. Kindle Previewer allows you to quickly switch between Kindle versions and see how the book will look on each type. Upload Your Book File Once you’re happy with the format, you can upload the file to KDP. The only option is Digital Rights Management. This is your choice. Choose Enable if you want to make it harder for people to copy your book, or Do Not Enable if you prefer to make your book available without restrictions. After you’ve uploaded, there’s an online previewer to check the text still looks right. Self publish on Kindle: Step 2 – Cover Photo There are two options, design your own cover or use the template-based Cover Creator. I recommend designing your own cover. The book cover is critical to attracting readers and a template based design is less likely to stand out from the crowd. The picture at the top shows what the cover I designed for Veronika looks like on the Kindle. Designing your own cover doesn’t have to be difficult. At the simplest, it’s just a question of finding a photo, making it the right size and adding the book’s title and your name to it. Find a Cover Photo There are two options: use an original photo or artwork of your own or download one from an image library. The cheapest and easiest option is to use your own photo. Make the Cover Photo the Right Size and Add the Title You’ll need some image editing software to make the cover the right size and to add the title and your name as the author. The free and easy to use image editing programs I recommend are iPiccy and Pixlr. Use the image editor to crop the photo so it is 1,563 x 2,500 pixels, as in the diagram below: The cover should also be in colour, despite the fact the most common Kindles only display black and white. This is because the Kindle Fire and the Kindle app on iPhone, Windows etc. can display colour. Both iPiccy and Pixlr have a variety of free to use fonts. Experiment with a few different ones until you find one you like. Upload the Cover This is simply a matter of clicking Browse for Image… selecting the cover you’ve designed and then clicking Upload Image. Design a cover using the Cover Creator Alternatively, if you just want a simple cover, use the Cover Creator. Step 3 – Rights and Pricing Verify Your Publishing Territories Select Worldwide rights – all territories. Your book will then appear on all the different Amazon sites around the world. Choose Your Royalty I suggest you set your price so that you receive the 70% Royalty – which means a minimum of $2.99 / £1.49 after that it’s up to you. You can set prices worldwide automatically, based on the US price, or customise your prices for different territories. It might be worth setting prices manually to exploit psychological price points like £1.99. Self publish on Kindle: Final Step – Publish! Now just click Save and Publish. That’s it. In a couple of hours your book will be on all the Amazon stores around the world. See – I told you it was easy! More Details There are more details, including links to all the tools mentioned, on my website at How to Self Publish on Kindle in Three Easy Steps [ http://graemeshimmin.com/self-publish-on-kindle/ ]

How can I sign a Word doc without printing it?
How can I sign a Word doc without printing it? From an absolute legalistic perspective, you probably can’t. But you can scan your signature and insert it in your doc. The ‘best’ way to do this (i.e. make it look real) is to begin with a very large signature. Take a full sheet of white paper in landscape orientation and scrawl your signature right across it, as big as possible. Use a big, thick permanent marker. (Black works best.) Now scan the result. At this point you can, if you’re worried about document size, scale the image of your signature down a bit … but not too much. You want a big sig with 600 horizontal pixels being the absolute minimum size. In Word, insert your signature via Insert -%3E Picture. Once you’ve done that, left-click anywhere on the signature. Then grab a corner with the left mouse button and scale (drag) the image down to a suitable size. Scaling down a large image helps hide speckling and aliasing, and makes the signature look much more real. By rights you should be able to scale down in a graphics package and simply import the resulting lower resolution signature image into Word. I do not know why, but this never seems to work as well (look as good) as doing the scaling in Word. Maybe it’s just me.

How do I get an internship at Google?
Oh, there are a ton of ways. 1. Apply online and have a better resume than the supposedly 2,000,000 people who also applied. ( Cracking Into Google: 15 Reasons Why More Than 2 Million People Apply Each Year [ http://www.forbes.com/sites/stanphelps/2014/08/05/cracking-into-google-the-15-reasons-why-over-2-million-people-apply-each-year/ ] ) ( edit: that 2M figure is most likely all job applications not just internships ) 2. Go to a school that Google recruits from ( your best bet is Stanford, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, ULA, MIT The Schools Where Apple, Google, and Facebook Get Their Recruits [ http://www.wired.com/2014/05/alumni-network-2/ ] ) 3. Go work at a company that Google hires a lot from. ( Google really likes Microsoft employees Charted: Where Google, Facebook, and Tesla like to poach from [ http://qz.com/342229/where-tech-companies-hire-from/ ]) 4. If your school has a Google Student Ambassador (GSA), apply for the program, get in, meet a recruiter, and ask for an interview. ( Google for Education: Student Ambassador Program [ https://www.google.com/edu/resources/programs/student-ambassador-program/ ] ) 5. Go to hackathons Google attends, and impress the googler on site enough to get a recommendation. ( Page on hackalist.org [ https://www.hackalist.org/ ] ) 6. Get an internal recommendation. ( A good trick here is to use Facebook graph search and query for "friends and friends of friends that work at Google". For the love of all things holy, please don't be a pest and just ask random people you don't know for recommendations ) 7. Have an awesome linkedin that gets you noticed. ( How to get noticed by recruiters on LinkedIn - Blog - Wysdom Consulting [ http://www.wysdomconsulting.com/blog/blog/how-to-get-noticed-by-recruiters-on-linkedin ] ) 8. Have a friend that gets contacted by a google recruiter and ask them to recommend you when the recruiter asks if they know anyone that would be a good fit to interview with Google. BONUS : This one is my personal favorite. 9. Realize you go to a school that Google doesn't recruit from, go to hackathons at other schools to try to meet a recruiter, realize your resume isn't good enough to grab their attention, build up your resume, realize you still can't get through the online filter, try to apply to be a GSA so you can meet a recruiter, find out you need a recommendation from a previous GSA, realize your school has never had a previous GSA, fly to pennsylvania to meet a GSA from another school ( shout out to Eden Shapiro [ https://www.quora.com/profile/Eden-Shapiro ]), convince them to recommend you, get recommended and finally apply, become a GSA, fly out to the Googleplex for training, meet a recruiter, tell the recruiter you have a upcoming offer deadline at their favorite competitor, ask for an interview, have an interview two days later, get internship. It's as easy as that!

How do you write a book (steps) and publish it?
I became a writer by accident, and have now published four books. So, I know what it’s like to have little writing experience, and to grow to writing a lot. I’ll start off by saying that most people have false beliefs about how a book gets written. I used to think that to write a book, you would just sit down and write a book straight through. This is probably why I hated writing until I was deep into my twenties! The steps I recommend are designed to break down what can be a painful process into smaller, less-painful steps. Step 1: Build a Tiny Writing Habit The first thing you need to do is to build a habit of writing. Many people will tell you to build a habit of 1,000 words, but that’s just insane. You might meet that goal the first day, and maybe even the second, but then what happens? You oversleep your alarm clock a few minutes or you catch a cold, and you use that little thing as an excuse to not write today. I interviewed Stanford professor and habits expert BJ Fogg on my podcast [ http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/bj-fogg-podcast/ ], and he told me about “tiny habits.” Basically, you should shoot for the smallest habit you can possibly imagine. That might be to write five words a day, fifty words a day, or even one hundred. The point is that you pick a habit that is so small, you can’t possibly make an excuse not to write. It becomes harder for you to do the habit than it is to not do the habit. If you keep writing every day, suddenly, you’ll be able to write much more, with less pain. Stick with the tiny habit, but if you write more than that target, that’s fine. Just don’t write less. Congratulate yourself just as much for writing fifty words as you do for writing 1,000 words. Step 2: Learn About Books Most of us take books for granted. We don’t think about how much thought and consideration goes into getting people to want to buy a book. Make a habit of downloading free Kindle samples of books. Read a bunch of them. Think hard about why someone would want to buy the book based upon the title and subtitle. Read the Amazon reviews. Why did someone love the book – why did someone hate it? Even more valuable, why did someone almost love the book. As you read Kindle samples, ask yourself if you’re personally compelled to keep reading as you get to the end of the book. The beginning of the book is really a part of the sales funnel, so pay close attention to it. Step 3: Build a Publishing Habit There are lots of emotional barriers to get over in writing, but also in putting your work out there. If you have a writing habit, you’re busting through those barriers for writing on a daily basis. Now you need a publishing habit. Make a habit of publishing something every day. Again, you can start with a really tiny habit. I think Medium is a good place, but you could even do here on Quora if you’re practicing for nonfiction on a topic. As you publish, pay attention to the fears that you have each time you publish. You’ll probably publish many things where you feel embarrassed or afraid, only to find out nobody really cares. You’ll also publish things that you expect people to really love, only to find out the same. I like Medium because you can see what people highlight, and the “clap” feature also helps you see what resonates. This is all very valuable information, because it helps you see in real time what resonates. Step 4: Build an Email List If you’re going to go through the trouble of writing a book, you want someone to buy it. The best way to find buyers for your book is to already have fans. Sure, you can build an audience on Twitter or Facebook or here on Quora, but you don’t really own a direct line to that audience. This is why you need an email list. You can start with a simple sign-up at the end of each post you publish with your publishing habit: “Sign up to get updates from me »” You can build up to giving bonuses for each sign up, such as a short story or a list of tips. I provide a list of tools I relied upon to 4x my writing output [ http://kadavy.net/tools ]. ConvertKit [ http://kadavy.net/convertkit ] (affiliate) is the best email provider for authors. I personally use ActiveCampaign [ http://kadavy.net/activecampaign ] (also an affiliate), which is a little more complicated. I’ve written detailed comparisons of ConvertKit vs. ActiveCampaign [ http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/convertkit-vs-activecampaign/ ], MailChimp vs. ActiveCampaign [ http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/mailchimp-vs-activecampaign/ ], and an AWeber Review [ http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/aweber-review/ ], if you want to delve into this topic in detail. Step 5: Write a Book Title That Will Sell I cringe when I think back to the book title ideas I had for my first book ideas. Heck, I cringe when I think about some book title ideas that I have currently. Coming up with a good title for your book is very important, and very difficult. You want to balance having the right keywords with having something compelling or clever. Keywords are important because people search for books on Amazon. I have a book called How to Write a Book: An 11-Step Process to Build Habits, Stop Procrastinating, Fuel Self-Motivation, Quiet Your Inner Critic, Bust Through Writer's Block, Let Your Creative Juices Flow [ http://kadavy.net/wab ]. I admit, that’s a ridiculously long title and subtitle combination, but I called it that for a reason: It’s jam-packed full of keywords that I know, through research, that people search for on Amazon. The book gets lots of organic sales! You can also attract people to your book with a clever title. But it has to be a title that is 1) clever or cool-sounding 2) conveys what the book is about in some way 3) passes the “cocktail party test.” Imagine you’re at a cocktail party, and you’re telling a friend about a book you’re reading. How does it feel to tell them you’re reading that book? Does it feel good? Does it make you look good? This is why a book like Deep Work passes the cocktail party test. It feels good to tell someone the work you do is “deep.” If a book were called The Small Penis Owner’s Handbook, that would not pass the cocktail party test. Step 6: Write an Outline for Your Book We’re halfway through the process, and we’re only now writing an outline!? If I could blame one thing for why I hated writing as a kid, it would be the outline. Every damn English teacher I had made us write an outline before we wrote a paper. Well how the hell are you supposed to know what you’re going to write about before you write it?! Through your writing and publishing habit, you’ve started to develop a “universe” in your mind on a particular topic, or a series of topics (even if you’re writing fiction). Now that you have some idea what you want to write about, you can try to give structure to that writing. I personally never have a completed outline that I stick to. I start to outline, and then if some prose comes to me on a particular bullet point, I start writing prose. The next day when I come back, I’ll start writing an outline all over again from scratch. Force yourself to write an outline of your book. Accept that it’s imperfect, then move on. Step 7: Write a First Draft of Your Book Now that you have an outline, you can write the first draft of your book. Channel your writing habit into filling out that outline. Your tiny habit will have to get a bit bigger now. Make a habit of writing 500 words a day, filling out that outline. I like a program called signNowner for writing really organized projects, but use whatever you’re comfortable with. Let yourself be sloppy here. Remember, it’s a first draft. Step 8: Read the First Draft of Your Book It’s an amazing feeling to print out your book at Office Depot and bring a stack of papers to a cafe. Sit down, shut off your mind, and try to react to your book like you’re someone who has never seen it before. Don’t bother marking down spelling and grammar mistakes here. You’re trying to feel the book as a whole. If you think about details, it will distract you from that. Step 9: Restructure Your Outline Now that you’ve read the first draft of your book, you can restructure your outline. You may need some incubation time between reading your first draft (maybe a couple of times) and restructuring your outline. Stephen King recommends to authors to not even read the first draft of their manuscripts until several weeks after finishing it. You really do need some time for your mind to make connections. If you give yourself a few weeks before you restructure your outline (while still keeping a writing habit) when you revisit, something magical happens. Try to write a new outline from scratch. You’ll probably find your ideas are more crisp than ever. Step 10: Write Your Second Draft Now that you’ve written the whole book, consumed it, and restructured it, you can rewrite everything, using that new structure as a guide. There may be lots of details you need to research. Again, keep a habit, and stick with it. You’ll find parts of the second draft come very easily to you, since you already have the first draft in your mind. Things will be more crisp. Step 11: Write Your Final Draft Now, you can start worrying about things like sentence structure, grammar, and spelling. Print out your second draft, go over it with a red pen (I prefer green). Share it with friends or your fans. (I shared the second draft of The Heart to Start [ http://kadavy.net/hts ] with my readers on Google Docs, and they crowd-edited it.) You may also want to hire an editor or proofreader. Well, that’s how you write a book. Everything I’ve written here is in more detail in a book I wrote called How to Write a Book [ http://kadavy.net/wab ]. How to publish a book? As far as how to publish a book, that part is easier, if you’re willing to self publish. People forget that you can publish a book almost as easily as you can publish a blog post. In fact, How to Write a Book was originally just a blog post, also called how to write a book [ http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/how-to-write-a-book/ ]. If you really want to get a feel for how to publish a book, I recommend you go to KDP [ http://kdp.amazon.com ], and try to publish 500 words, on literally anything, under a made-up name. Your “book” will be available in the Kindle store within hours. It’s incredibly valuable just to go through the process of publishing on Kindle, just to see how simple it is. In fact, you should publish your first “dummy” book today before you even start any of the steps I’ve laid out above. It will change the way you think about book publishing. If you’re interested in more of my thoughts on self publishing, I wrote in more detail about self publishing, specifically what I learned publishing three books in only six months [ https://writingcooperative.com/24-things-i-learned-publishing-3-books-in-only-6-months-1b8f743e9e86 ].

How can I improve my writing skills?
Till the age of 32, I did not know what good writing meant. Nobody taught me or demanded it from me.Throughout my schooling (in Kendriya Vidyalaya) and college, ‘quality writing’ was not even a thing. I doubt if even any of my English teachers knew how to write well. Essays were just meant to fill the pages with words (e.g., write a 1000 word essay on blah…).Working in the IPS further wrecked my writing skills.Here is a typical Sarkari communication - “Your kind attention is drawn to the reference cited. Your good self may kindly be pleased to take appropriate action. I will be highly obliged if the undersigned could be informed about the outcome.”Full of passive voice, verbosity… you name it.For my MBA applications, for the first time, I had to tell a story. Since I was competing with a global pool of applicants, I was forced to up my game. That was my first attempt at good writing.At McKinsey, I could further sharpen my skills since I spent as much time on writing as on problem-solving.I still have a long way to go, but here are a few lessons. I am assuming that the reader already has the basic grammar and composition sorted.Let us start with a few hygiene factors:Omit needless words:I picked this from Strunk and White’s classic on writing. Unnecessary words are like dust on a glass window - they muddy up the beauty of your writing.A few examplesInstead of ‘In order to achieve our goals’, just say ‘To achieve our goals.’Don’t write ‘In my opinion, we should do blah…’ Just say ‘We should do blah…’ Your writing is your opinion, anyway.Use active voice: Instead of, ‘The project was done by two interns,’ make it, ‘Two interns did the project.’Cut down the use of adjectives/adverbs: Don’t say, ‘The exam was very hard.’ Just say, ‘The exam was hard.’Show, don’t tell.“The journey to the peak was an arduous climb” - this ‘tells’ the reader, who has to recreate the feeling in his head.“Halfway up the journey, my calf muscles were on fire” - This is better as the reader can feel that it was arduous. We don’t have to tell.Stick to the rules, but not all the time. When you break the rules, it should be intentional, and it should hit the reader.The above will make your writing clean and easy to read. But to make people cry or laugh or angry, you need to give it some punch.Here are a few suggestions:Edit mercilessly. The punch comes from editing, not from the first draft.Ask yourself, ‘What is the key point.’ Delete all the other words. Then add back words only if they really change the meaning. See example below:A bad, verbose example: “Based on the facts and our past experience, we have a few corrective actions to recommend. We suggest that the client at least starts with the following three initiatives - A, B, and C.”.Better, tighter writing: “To conclude, we recommend three initiatives - A, B, and C.”After a round of editing, take a break and come back after a few hours, or a day. You will be surprised at the number of mistakes you will catch.If you are just starting, try cutting down the word count of the first draft by 50%. Trust me - it will become better.Some people say ‘Write only when you are angry.’ Don’t wait for the right mood, but feel the rage, the excitement, or the fear if you want to move the reader.Specifics over generality:Instead of saying, ‘The affluence level in country A has gone up a lot in the last 50 years’Try saying something like, ‘Today, every family in country A has two cars on average. Fifty years back, only the king had one.’Don’t be afraid to offend. Don’t please everyone. Hit hard.Storify it. Facts and data don’t move people. One thousand people dead or 100,000 people dead - it is just a few more zeros. But stories evoke emotion.E.g., the Syrian civil war killed lakhs, but it did not move anyone. But the photo of Aylan Kurdi, a toddler who died when his family was immigrating, changed the sentiments of Europe towards Syrian immigrants. Before that, tens of thousands of kids were killed, but nobody cared. Why? Because we can relate to stories but not statistics.Before I finish, here is an important disclaimer:I am not a professional writer. My training is in Finance and Engineering. Hence please treat the above as learnings of an amateur, and not an authoritative set of rules.In summary: Write a lot. Edit brutally. Cut out the junk. Feel the rage. Tell the story. Don’t dilute. Write fearlessly.Best wishes- RajanNote: I removed the photo of Aylan Kurdi since some readers found it distressing. But we should ask ourselves, why?Lakhs of people have died in Syria, and yet we can easily close our eyes to that. But one story has the power to change the way we think. Remember, closing our eyes does not change reality. It only hides it from us.
