hmm?  Not quite sure I understood this request =)

Jimmy Mardell wrote a great 68k reference which can be found at:

    http://www.ticalc.org/pub/text/68k/68kguide.txt

but this guide presumes you have knowledge of some other assembly language
(I myself had read Jimmy's ZShell school, which is a great tutorial for z80
assembly); I'm not sure how useful it will be for someone who hasn't done
any assembly language programming before.

I haven't done 68k assembly for well over a year now (it's C for me =), so
I'm not sure how best to recommend you jump in and start a program.  Used to
be that you download the doorsos zip and the assembler, batch files, and
instructions were all there.  You might also want to grab some real sources
and work off those.
