- Use Gmail. Navigate to your Google account, or set up one for free if you don’t have one. Once you are inside your Gmail account, click the “document” button on the top of the page. This leads you to an external link. Choose to create a new document. Play around in Gmail documents until you make yourself familiar with all the features.
- Brainstorm. Come up with different ideas you would like your book to be about. Choose a tone, theme and any morals you want your readers to learn as they read the book. Take your time with this step, and get all your ideas out. Choose only the best ideas, and be sure that they aren’t repetitive and boring. Make your ideas original and exciting.
- Outline. Create an outline for your book. Format each chapter using your ideas to make everything come together. You will need to refer to your outline as you are writing your online book. Ensure that you understand your phrases on the outline.
- Choose an online publisher. Create an online account with the publishing website that you choose, and read over the submission guidelines. Be sure you know how to save your book under which file type. Lulu.com and createspace.com are two free print-on-demand publishers online.
- Get your book published online. Once you have written, proofread, and edited your book online, it's time to upload it to your chosen publisher and have it published online.
