It depends on what kind of book. Are you making a novel, or something that will have graphics? Is it informational or a children's book? Is it going to be 500 pgs, or 20? I would say do the writing with as little formatting as possible. What I mean by that is don't press enter 11 times to create a page that looks like a chapter start. I don't know who you would give the text doc to, but eventually it will be handed to the book designer, who will *not* be using Word, they'll be using a program that handles multi-page documents, such as Adobe InDesign. They'll create a couple master pages with styles that can apply to all or just some of the pages. When that's done and edited, then they'll (most likely) create a PDF to send to the printer... or possibly the publishing company. I'm not sure, I just work on the design end. Hope this helps- and good luck writing!
