Foster makes no bones about nor apologies for the simple fact that one book per week is a part-time job. If you're serious about writing that much, be prepared to give up the frivolous in your life. Arrange your life so that you do it. No time for excuses, just doing.His book is a quick read, but don't let that fool you. It has numerous bits of usable advice scattered throughout although he occasionally misses a follow-up.For example, he says to ignore the red (and green) editing lines as you're writing your first draft but doesn't give "how" to ignore them. I'd like to add, "Turn them off for writing. Turn them back on for editing."I recommend this book for those who aren't afraid of a little work to achieve their dream.
