Review: Easily the best book I have ever read on writing!

I was scrolling through my friend (and fellow author) Fran Veal's reviews of books last night, and I happened to come across this title. I'd never heard of the book before. I'd never heard of Rachel Aaron before, but Fran gave the book a five-star review. And, since I know her and trust her judgment (and since the book was only 99 cents), I thought I would give it a try. If Melissa Foster (and, apparently, Rachel Aaron) can write 10,000 words per day, I can do it too, right? Eh...Maybe.I don't even really know where to start on the things I loved about this book. I really just enjoyed it all. I almost literally couldn't put it down. I started reading it last night before I went to sleep (I wanted to keep reading, but I was just too tired), and I finished it this morning as soon as I woke up (using some of my prime writing time, but I just really couldn't wait to finish it).This book is written in a wonderful conversational tone that draws you in and keeps you hooked. Plus, it includes priceless tips on time management, record-keeping (Do YOU keep track of your daily writing time? I know I don't, but I think I might start now.), plotting, editing, and more. This was just a fabulous read. If you're an aspiring writer (or a seasoned writer who's looking for ways to increase your productivity), you need to buy this book! TODAY!
