When artful thoughts begin careening at full speed in the writer’s mind they are seldom finished products. Our creative thoughts need our involvement, blood, sweat and tears. Like Aggie tells us We never get too good to improve our writing. Amazon describes this book as, “The only How-to-Write book that has nothing to do with writing. It's all about rewriting. Whittle away what buries the art of your words beneath pulp, no matter the topic, no matter the genre.”
 
What a lot of us do when beginning to write is ramble. This happens when our ego wants to be the star of the show. I like Aggie’s view point to sculpt away the wood to get to the pulp or the art. I like her advice to launch readers into your word flow, and guide them with a concise rudder.  No book is ever written, it is rewritten. What keeps us reading? I suspect the subject; next I think it is how well we know the subject. Third, and not the least, Aggie advises us clarity and conciseness keeps us published and read. Under the Visual Arts Junction umbrella, Aggie has launched Promotion á la Carte, author promotional services where, guided by her experience and organizational/marketing savvy, authors gain the most promotional bang for their buck. Check out her Editorial Review at
 
Aggie gives us seven wonderful webs to check out about rewriting and editing. Editing Primer and Promotion a la Carte were my favorites. Writing is fun and medicinal but rewriting and promoting can be a drag. I’ve learned a lot from Aggie, her web and The Rewritten Word. I’ve learned not to use I so much; to not use many ings; and to trust the experts like Aggie when it comes to rewriting, editing, promotion and getting our books published. Whether you are a beginner writer or not, you will want to keep this reference handy to learn or relearn the magic of addition and subtraction when rewriting. Smooth, easy reading, FIVE STARS for Amazon.
