An okay reference

There was some very good information but I also felt like some of the 48 reasons were lengthy with fillers to get more words written. I also have to add take some of the things in this book with a grain of salt. Some people live super busy lives and can't just drop everything to write a book in a few days. Or that one person giving criticism as feedback (in a not constructive manner) can impact people. Just because someone was bullied or treated bad in school (or home) and become adults that effect doesn't and most likely never will leave. If it takes you 5 years to write a book at least you wrote it, don't burn yourself out.

The cover says it all. Nat provides the path for you to follow. I appreciate the common sense and simplicity of the information shared. So helpful to me on my journey as an author.
