Hunter Nuttall has published a cook e-Book for all who aspire to blog. 
If you are new, this is a great book to give you some insight on how to start the right way. You’ll surely have questions about Blog topic <niche>, number of posts, Guest posting, monetization, Social media and whatnot. This book will get you off on the right foot.
Even if you’ve blogged for a long time, it can reinforce good habits. As I read it, I remembered I have made practically every mistake listed.
From page 2:
If you’re into Zen and you’re into blogging, read and share this ebook.
If you’re into Zen but you’re not into blogging, share this ebook.
If you’re not into Zen but you’re into blogging, read this ebook.
If you’re not into Zen and you’re not into blogging, read it twice.
It’s a quick read so it won’t be too distracting for the day - and I must admit, the twist at the end is pretty good!
