It had some great tips on how to write a non-fiction book. Easy and quick to read, and positive in its outcome that others can do this as well.

I am a professional writer of nonfiction, and have been thinking about writing a book, so this book was part of my research. I have to admit that I had a bit of an arrogant attitude going in... I wasn't convinced that the author could tell me something that I didn't already know. Turns out, he could. There is a lot of very basic information that I think beginning writers would benefit from. But I found that his advice on organizing and planning a book -- such as writing a core outline first, so that you have a definite handle on what your book is about and how you're going to write it -- rang true with me. In criticism, I would say that the author repeats himself occasionally throughout the book. But, then, maybe a beginning writer would benefit from the repetition. Finally, I liked the way he encouraged non-writers to try their hand at the craft, with helpful tips on how to get started. The author definitely has a positive attitude!

Done reading this book, it was an exciting journey. It gave in simple words and encouraging language so many tips for those who dream to be authors and have a massage to tell the world and want someone to show them the best and shortest way.

This book was ok and I did learn a few things from it. At times though this book seemed a little too technical and dry for my liking. I will keep it handy for future reference if need be. There are some helpful links provided in this book that I may use in the future.
