Book in a Month: The Fool-Proof System for Writing a Novel in 30 Days

A must read for writers struggling to finish a book.

The author condenses so many widely taught lessons into a few chapters of digestable information. Things I've studied for years seems to gel when I read this book. There is also a great online group that acts as a support group. I'm so glad I bought my copy. A keeper for sure.

A great giude for writing you own book or getting you unblocked

I had been trying to write a book for more than six years and with the help of Book in a Month I was finally able to get my thoughts down on paper and in an order that made a lot more sense. I work full time so I do not always have the time needed to write everyday, but with Book in a Month I was able to make steady progress toward my goal. The activities that are suggested for each of the thirty days are really helpful for when you get stuck or if you think a scene may need a little bit more to make it work. The charater sketches made me think about aspects of the characters I had never thought about before and found to be very useful in furthering the plot. This book is perfect for the first time writer or if you have written hundreds of books. This step by step guide will get you through your book faster than you ever thought possible. I will never write another book without Book in a Month by my side.

Worked wonders for me.

This book helped me organized my rather hazy way of interlocking my thoughts. It cleared up my questions and organized me to move forward and broke my writer's block. Bravo!

Write your book

Even though writing a book in a month isn't realistic for me, I found the layout used to structure a book from beginning to end helpful. I made copies of the pages and expanded them out to 8 1/2 x 11 size since the size of the book is somewhat smaller than I care for. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to outline their story from beginning to end. Too often stories abound within oneself with no beginning, middle, or end. Ms. Scmidt's book was perfect for pushing me to formulate a story line from beginning to end.
