Nancy Hendrickson has a lot of good things to offer and a lot of helpful things to say. However, it would be easier to believe her tips and advice if she would demonstrate that the quality of a book indeed ranks higher than the quantity of words one can churn out. In other words, the quality of this book is detracted by the facts that there are quite a few grammatical/spelling errors sprinkled throughout and that the formatting is so poor and unappealing that the pages are difficult to wade through at times. As a whole, the book offers a lot of practical advice for free-lancers who are on a time crunch and hope to make money on their writing instead of following the too-common route of being a starving artist. In addition, there are many helpful reminders to writers of all ages and genres, things that can be used again and again to cultivate positive habits and disciplines. Yet, it must also be remembered that it is not always the best method to write a non-fiction book in a few days, but that time and repeated editing leads to a better and cleaner product.I received a free download of this book in exchange for an honest review.
