This book is quick read. I found myself sailing through chapters. I took notes on what to remove from my manuscript. I couldn't help but apply the advice to my own writing. Surely after almost fifteen years of writing and reading dozens of writing and editing books, mine would be nearly flawless. I couldn't have been more shocked when I applied the author's guidelines. While I didn't have an  enormous amount of errors, I had more than I thought I would.Any writer new or seasoned will benefit from this book. I would recommend this book to any writer who wants to tighten their writing.This book is written in a fun way and didn't feel like typical revising/editing books I've read. I enjoyed this book enough that I'm buying her "Writing Fight Scenes" next.
