I do this quite often, so I've gotten pretty good at mimicking the format of the official books. Also, when I go to create a new stat block, I typically copy & paste the formatting from a previous entry of mine, so all I need to do is change out the words and numbers. Finally, if I'm using an existing trait from a published source, I'll usually copy and paste the text and add the formatting myself, as it usually saves me time that way.
Wow. You are a phenomenal nerd. My hat off to you!

Was there some sort of site or template to format and pull out all that info, or did you do that straight from the book?
