This book will make you a better writer, and save you money on professional editing fees. It is your complete, easy-to-read, bang-up-to-date self-editing solution! Read what other authors and editors have said about it: I have read articles, watched videos etc about writing, but I have learned more from your book than from all of those other sources together. It is also very well-written, precise and with specific examples and makes an enjoyable as well as educational read. "This is an invaluable resource for a growing subset of writers ... everything I've ever wanted to say to self-publishing authors, presented clearly and respectfully."

I expect to read the whole book several more times in the next couple of years." As recommended by professional editors worldwide. |
