Why \u201cWriting Tools, 26 Tips on How to Improve Your Writing\u201d?<\/h3>\n
\n

I am a blogger, working on my debut novel and has just published the first book of my life, do I really need to say why I selected this ebook for review? \ud83d\ude42 I am at a very early stage of my professional writing career and can use all the help I can get, especially if the help is coming from a well-accomplished author like Cheryl Sterling. Cheryl has several paranormal & contemporary romance novels under her belt. With solid experience of 18 years in writing, I couldn\u2019t have asked for a better person to handhold me as I take the first steps of my writing career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Highlights of the book<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The timing of this ebook was perfect as I started reading it after publishing my own book on Amazon Kindle and I could immediately start using the tips from this ebook. Instead of reading this ebook at one go, I read it as a step by step manual following as many steps as possible to establish the online presence of me & my ebook. The book gives some very simple yet effective steps to earn those brownie points in marketing a book.<\/p>\n

She has given some very useful tools such as BoardBooster,\u00a0Canva, Draft2Digital to do various things right from designing a cover image to taking the book to the larger audience.<\/p>\n

Overall this book is a\u00a0must read\u00a0for every budding author.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
