Good read
I got this book in the Write Stuff bundle.
I enjoyed this one. It largely summarizes what Dean Wesley Smith writes about on his blog, but it's still written well. The copyright section was worth reading, as was the practice session. However, the biggest failing was that the info was very basic, almost too basic for my tastes.
It could have been a lot more comprehensive, too, but for the value in the bundle, I'm glad I grabbed it.
