better than I thought! May 24, 2007

Such a surprisingly helpful book. Thought it might be boring or bland...but truly it inspired me to consider this as a career. Suzanne's writing is understandable and she makes the topic completely approachable. What a surprise find on the subject. Thank you!
The Book I So Did NOT Expect to Love May 18, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I picked up this book not knowing it was new, and, boy, was I surprised by its depth and scope. A collector of word-nerdy goodness, I wouldn't have expected this book to be so entertaining. I definitely recommend it to anybody who hopes to augment their current careers with editing, or possibly spin off into a business of their own.

I was surprised to find a book with this title was so full of life, great information, funny stories, and most of all a plan that I could put into action to make money from reading and editing. The format is easy to follow and put into practice without working too hard. Highly recommended
She's done it again! May 15, 2007

This is the second book I've read by Suzanne Gilad and like her first, it is a winner! In her first work, The Real Estate Millionaire,co-authored with Boaz Gilad, I learned enough about real estate to begin negotiating my own purchases. Now I've begun studying the basics of another lucrative business! This book is interesting, easy-to-follow and empowering! Kudos to the author!
I can't recommend this book enough! May 14, 2007
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
As a former journalist, writing my first novel, and collaborating with other writers on various projects - I found this book to be completely invaluable. Sue Gilad breaks down everything you'll ever need to know in a way that is not only direct and informative, but also entertaining. This is absolutely the best reference book on the subject out there. Whether you're a journalist, writer, editor, proofreader, student, someone looking to make this a career, or you just want to hone your editing skills, I can't recommend this book enough!
