Beep, beep. (Just tooting my own horn.) Here are just a few of the kind words shared with me lately about my writing:
Readers:
“I read the book. It is well written, easy to read, and well researched. The author adds a little humor to prevent the reading from being too dry. The author focuses on nutrition and health. By following her advice, one could not only lose weight, but also become healthy. Her writing is culturally sensitive. She takes in consideration that people may have different habits, traditions, or dietary requirements.”
