Review: Expected more in-depth beyond the very basics.

I liked what the author is doing here, urging us to write well, to write those books we may be sitting on and to get them to publish. I live and breathe this concept and cannot be more in agreement ....The only thing is the cost. When you speed things up, what are you giving up? The author of this book had several errors and punctuation and grammar mistakes. Is she modeling what we should be doing if we write in such a mass hurry? And don't get me wrong. I wrote 100,000 words into my latest book in the month of November and I started on November 5th, but I won't be publishing it without going through several iterations of edition and revision not just myself but also by a professional editor. I am afraid that we may be giving up a LOT by writing in this much of a hurry.Why 72 hours and why not a week? Are we in that much of a hurry to make a buck or two to give up quality and thought and effort into creating something REALLY worthwhile? I am ALL for action, all for getting our work out but not for giving up quality and that je-ne-sais-quoi that comes with a little time and relaxed focus rather than a mad rush to press.But still, a 3-star for a very good message and a great kick in the pants for anyone who is just sitting around, wishing they could write and publish whereas they most certainly CAN, and Nancy provides a quick guide on the how part. Good read!
