About the author

I am a writer. I would like to make a profit off this, who wouldn't? But even if I didn't the fact that people can view my words makes me a happy camper. Writing calms me and helps me meditate. Whatever I write I hope it is good and among deserving eyes.

A very basic guide to editing your novel but worth a read if you are new to the subject. I didn’t learn much from this book but then I have read heaps on editing. I did learn one new thing, however.

It’s a very quick read. I read it in about half an hour or less. The authors have written other books which are referred to in this book.

[J. N. · Rating 1 out of 5]

Terrible self-pub pamphlet (15 pages!) about writing from a writer with no more than 10 reviews on any of these "books" about writing (all tossed out in about a year, more like a blog than a book lineup), much less an actual novel.

For bonus points re-read the description and see how many obvious grammatical errors you see in the description of this book ABOUT EDITING. The irony.

This was an easy read and really nothing new but a great reminder of what I need to do to make my writing crisp and readable.
