I'm writing a book and so far it's been fairly easy for me to add content (non-fiction). I have a goal of 500 words per day. I'm not a writer in the sense of what my current business is, but I am doing this to add something else I am passionate about to my current business. I'm writing a book on a fitness topic that isn't discussed often to engage the audience of people that cannot afford my personal training services. So with the book I also have my training business that I need to cater to and often can't complete a chapter everyday because of my other business needing tending to.

I was going to make a blog after I completed my new website (completed all the content after my last thread and the rest is in the developers hands), but the book sounded better and would be something a blog could be created about after it is written.

I find when I come back from work, I start writing and wind up going in a completely different direction then where the chapter was originally being taken. Often having transitions poor transitions paragraph to paragraph.

I decided I am going to just start a new section each time this happens and then go back when I am ready to continue on the previous topic.

Just wondering what you Authors do to remain focused on each section of your book before completely switching gears on a new subject that is relatable, but doesn't quite fit what you were writing about before.

I'm thinking I need a better outline to not only detail the book itself, but what each chapter needs to cover.

And I also think I am realizing why books need many revisions. I think writing the first draft is going to be a lot easier then all the time I'll probably spend revising.
