After reading and highlighting (the inside looks like a disorded rainbow) I got a few tips, I have trouble to read to between the lines even in mine own language. I will definitely be trying the 30-method but I'm not sure when. There are a few things that botherd me while I was read this book.
- The continues word “reader”. I will never be writing for readers so that they can be pleased. The only I have to please is myself, not some faceless person on the other side of the globe.
- The time management. In 30 days to complete your first draft sounds to me as impossible, maybe it is not if you if it's the only thing you did and it sounds great. But when I start trying I will need a whole of time more than just 30 days.
- This sentence bother the most: “The villain may rear its ugly head.” Sorry that I have to say this but not every evil guy is ugly! I know a quit few villains in the written word are quit plesant to the eyes.
