Book in a Month: The Fool-Proof System for Writing a Novel in 30 Days

At present, I am using the book and am finding it quite useful. I’m working hard at the information asked for in the book and finding it stirring my brain considerably. I haven’t found that much time to free-write, since I am really concentrating on the daily assignments and want to give them much thought.
The book is easy to read and I think anyone could write a novel using the method described in the book……whether they could do it in a month is another story.
This is a great book to help you get started. It is very easy to use.
Even though I’m working on publishing my 6th book, I’ll always be a student of the business. So, I picked this book up to continue my education, and I’m glad I did. This helps organize the steps required to get from point A to Z.
Let’s face facts, most of us flounder around as we attempt to write our first few books. It’s all new to us. But I found that even after writing several books, that there were some valuable gems of knowledge in this book that I can add to my own processes.
This is an easy read and perfect for those that don’t have a process figured out yet.
I don’t write many reviews, but this book helps me so much, I’d like to thank the writer.
The book is fantastic, it’s my writing coach!
Many work sheets,great advice.
I have yet to launch into my month long adventure but I have read through a large majority of this book. The book has a lot of helpful hints on staying focused, not discouraging yourself, and monitoring yourself to get the writing process done quickly – and hopefully with as less pain as possible. The book is set up to be used once, so you would be buying a new one for each book you intend to write. The one downside to the book is I find the spaces in the book your supposed to write in way too small! Otherwise I recommend it to anyone interested in writing a short novel.
