Wireframed: Writing the manual for your program

Thoughts on how to structure Wireframed:

• Keeping chapters silo'd so I can move them around as needed.
• Trello cards provide an easy to reorganize content. A link to each chapter.
• I am looking at FAQs and Documentation as a model
• I'm also looking at how Wikipedia is organized
• Why not may it a Choose Your Own Adventure style book?
• What it if appeared as a familiar gmail looking inbox 'The emails you want to read'? Each chapter is written like an email to the reader. I find many of the emails I write could be stand-along modules. Is the idea of a book written in the form of emails to the reader appealing?
• If it appeared as a Q&A like in a forum?
• How could each chapter become an event the reader could add to their calendar? think Milestones.
• Could you tie it to the Pomodoro Technique? Where each chapter is one pomodoro?

The source code behind each chapter is available through a link at the end of each chapter via 'View Source.' aka Bonus Material.

Each chapter begins with a 140 character tweet - including hashtags to provide the reader with more insight into the topics to be discussed. Q. Should the hashtags define the chapter titles and structure?

Include sentences in bold to stand out? The idea struct me as I was reading Buddha in the Attic. If you look at how she puts into italics, what appears to be words from a manifesto thee girls must follow. What if mine was a manifesto that could come together at the back of the book? Then it would show how the manifesto is applied in everyday life!

It's also worth looking at how Medium, LinkedIn, and Quora are organized. I could include links to the topics pages at the end of each chapter for further reading.

I'm also considering what it would look like to publish a book as a subscription via Patreon.

We are most engaged when we are playing games (our game group meets monthly and we have fun!).

5 Minute games engage us in gameplay, and better prepare us for the task ahead.

How will the book were to be broken into 3 or 4 major sections? Is that important?

Learn. Do. Teach.

Teach Model:

Example, Explanation, and Execution.

Example​: Every section begins with a relatable/practical example.

Explanation​: I explain how the example was created.

Execution: You execute the action steps with prompts or through the use of a separate workbook (or section within the book).
