Thanks for the comments! I’m making no comments as to the tank-worthiness of the book, but I can say it’s interesting, not in the least because it’s derived largely from online sources.

I wouldn’t call its publication a milestone; more a moment of interest.

Tom–Congratulations on the inclusion in what sounds like a pretty good book.

You said it was good for the nightstand. What about the top of the toilet tank?

Congrats! And this does sound like a great book to include in the resource shelf. Anything that encourages the use of actual language, of creating text with actual craft, is something to value today. So kudos, and I’ll be looking your book up!

Congrats on the inclusion, Tom! I tend not to read a lot of general writing books/blogs/etc since so much of it doesn’t appear to relate to my craft (as opposed to art.) But inspiration can and should be found everywhere.
