everything you need

Patrika's book inspired me by breaking down the craft of writing into managable, "bite-sized" pieces! She takes a step by step approach, covering all aspects of the craft, from finding a place to sit and write to marketing and publishing. Excellent!

BEST I'VE FOUND

I've read a lot of books on how to write & get published. This one told me more, and said it in language I could easily understand. It gets my vote as the best book on these subjects.
