This reference book for writers is a quick read and a nice compilation of information about the emotional impact that word usage can have on a reader. I like the reminder that each word, when aptly used, can have power and meaning . . . the ability to stir the soul.
I experienced an early copy of this book and I hope that there will be another thorough editing pass for some formatting, spacing, and phrasing issues that remain before publication. These lingering issues distracted me from enjoying the overall message. I normally get really jazzed and inspired by this type of nonfiction science-based content . . . I think perhaps my expectations were just a bit too high this time.
I’d like to thank NetGalley for an advanced copy of Writing for Impact for my unbiased evaluation. 3 stars
