Death blows. In between is worse.

In this story ...

This book is not for dummies, but it is a guide for the modern indie author. Big Publishing spends big bucks on professional copywriters who make terrible books sound good. Meanwhile, indie authors can't get traction for their remarkable books, and inferior pulp with more spit and polish takes the spotlight.

The good news is these new skills can be learned. This book teaches the modern indie author how to write ...
