Jeff Goins gives you a small package of huge motivation and solid advice.Every new writer needs encouragement. To start putting one's thoughts in writing requires self-assurance and a bit of arrogance. Let's be honest, those who aren't too good, have enough arrogance to go on.It's those who have potential, that need to be prodded, before they drown in self-doubt.This book provides recipes. You do the "cooking".The other part is the advice how to publish what you wrote.Supposedly simple advice, but somehow missed by most.Reading this book will give second wind to those who stumbled and were about to give up.The only thing missing, and in my humble opinion needed very much, was advice about tools.Steven King, whom Mr. Goins is quotting, was big on mastery of language.How well you mix your words, how well you express your thoughts determines how seriously you will be taken.But that is just my wishful thinking. This lack doesn't take from the book. I just wish it were included.From some of the comments published here, this is a needed reminder.This writing from the READER, whose first language wasn't English.Good luck to all that take Mr. Goins' advices to heart.
