Keep it Simple. That’s one of the ten “commandments” shared in this book and it’s one that’s been put into practice on these very pages. This is a quick guidebook for writing and earning money these days. There’s no fluff, pomp, or unwarranted circumstance, but everything that’s packed into these 40-some pages is relevant to establishing a career as a writer. Even the formatting is simple (which is fine for what it is).The first read is helpful and inspiring. The second reading (and beyond) transforms this book from inspirational to a practical reference manual. There’s a lot to unpack and just about everything you need to get started. Couple it with the discipline you achieve from writing consistently and you are good to go.By the way, I received a complimentary digital edition of this book from Story Cartel because I promised to write an honest review. Honestly, I like this book and think it will be helpful for anyone aspiring to be a writer. (If you think I’m being kind for the wrong reasons, you should see what I wrote about those other books... )
