That's great to hear. And as I said, I think there is value in the
book as it is now, but even more promise. I hope to see an improved
2nd edition at some point in the future!
I realize that writing is hard and takes courage (you're putting
yourself out in the spotlight, for reviewers like myself to come and
beat you up :) I really hope this experience will not put a damper on
your energy for continuing to write. Sorry if I came across as harsh,
but I figured the best way to repay your effort was with an honest
review, even if it wasn't the most flattering.
All the best,
f
ps - sorry for the URL typo, thanks to those who figured it out and
quickly corrected it.
