  • Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2017
    Excellent run down of practical methods to produce quality work. Sixbury's methods are applicable to the real world and his explanations ate simple, and to the point.
  • Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2018
    The author provided excellent advice in a humorous, no-nonsense way. Definitely a must-read for any new writer. Looking forward to the next in the series.
