Review: Rayne's best resource so far, IMHO

I love all of Rayne Hall's books; from Storm Dancer to her Writing Craft series.  I was, however, surprised that it is her "Writing Fight Scenes" one that's a best seller.  IMHO, WFS is a great book (I just gave it 5 stars), but limited to one aspect of writing.  On the other hand, the World-loss diet encompasses all genres and styles of writing.From what I understand, the book sums up a whole course she ran, aiming at helping people write like her (did I mention I love her books?)  This means, showing writers how to trim the fat, while knowing when to stop.  Her tips are easy, memorable, and extremely helpful to anyone with a tendency to overwrite (ie. me).  It may not be a long book, but it is a sharp and helpful one.An interesting addition is a few sample chapters from Bony Hands and Storm Dancer (the beginning of which went down from 17,000 words to a mere 2,700), so the reader can see her tips in action.This is a must-buy for novice writers, and a great resource for many seasoned ones as well.
