I purchased this book because someone recommended it, and I'm glad that I acted on that recommendation.Do you want to earn money by selling your words?  If so and you are willing to write nonfiction and follow directions, then I recommend this book.  (It also comes with a bonus on affiliate marketing.)Anyone of at least average ability and motivation can produce a usable "how to" book if you follow Mr. Scott's advice.He begins exactly where he should:  with mindset.  This is the most valuable part of the book, so don't skip it.Then he shows how to start broadly in your search for a suitable market niche for you and how to narrow down your focus.  This avoids the major mistake of seeing the trees but not the forest.The fundamental theme is to emulate what best-selling Kindle authors are doing and improve upon it by adding unique, valuable content of your own.  Focus on a micro-problem and provide a step-by-step solution with no fluff.  Give the book an attractive title, cover, and description and you are on your way.  Then build upon that initial success by writing a number of successful non-fiction titles, especially in such ever-green niches as health, wealth, relationships, and passions (e.g., hobbies).Why not take the time to write a quality book that may have a lasting positive impact on its readers?Mr. Scott did.
