- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was like the woman I'll probably marry.
At first, I looked at this and thought "Maybe six? This low score was because I had read other books on this topic and had been ground down by disappointment. I picked this book up again and solved a HUGE problem, which was the job of writing like a human - stuff that had flow.
I am just waiting now for that woman I have been ignoring to....
Thank you Mary-Kate Mackey. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book rocked with useful advice. It was entertaining and easy to follow.
