I'm not a huge Janet E. fan. Her books are fun and kooky but I'm not a follower. However this book is a kick-butt, no-nonsense approach to writing.

So many authors will talk down to us or be real discouraging and we don’t need that when we already have so many challenges ahead of us. What we need is the pep talk from someone who has been where we are and who will tell us that we can do it too. DeLaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
