Necessary Info... But Rather Dry
Maybe it's all the legal jargon, but this book's a little tough to plow through... okay, fine, it's boring to read, for me anyway.
The info in it is important to know. I wish it was presented in a much more accessible way though.
Five Stars for a Top Writer's Reference!
This comprehensive quick reference guide is a must have for writers. *Especially first-time authors.* I recommend it to all writers that I mentor. Believe me - when you demonstrate at least some knowledge of contracts - you'll get a better one!
