One idea I read about some time back is a four step approach. First you come up with an idea, a premise for the book. Then you write an opening paragraph, then a closing paragraph. Finally you write down a list of scenes that could get you from point a to point z. At that point you have a rough idea of your storyline and type your manuscript out the hard way. One word at a time. Getting started on a project is easy, but finishing it is hard work that requires you to have your rear firmly attached to your chair in front of your desktop/netbook or desk with your notebook and pen (whatever method of writing you use in other words).
