1. Choose a high-interest subject. For example, dragons or robots, or even better, robotic dinosaurs.
2. Keep the plot moving. Descriptions and details should be kept to a minimum, and should generally tie to the plot.
3. Know the age level of your target audience and use tools available in Word (or other software) to ensure the reading level of your story is a step below the average reader.
4. This is true for any writing, but don't be patronizing or preachy. Be entertaining instead, and while there can be a moral to the story, it should not be blatant.
5. Less is more. Keep sentences, paragraphs, chapters and the book itself short.
