Good read

I was able to get a few good ideas to implement, and that makes it worth it.

Useful Guide

This book gives the reader a thorough overview of writing process, from market research, to writing and editing, to publishing on various platforms. It does not go into the practical steps of publishing. However, it does offer support through the author's website for that part of the process. If you are considering writing non-fiction and want to know what that process entails - this book is a great place to start.

Good basic information

If you’re looking for introductory information about writing then this is a good option. If you’re already an author this isn’t the best choice for you.

Motivational but shallow

No proper flow, ideas seem to come in random order, no system, nothing is explained in-depth, a book written in a hurry - speed being the single most important idea of it. So no, I don't think that "done is better than perfect" when it comes to books. "Usefull" is always best...
