Rating:  Summary: Practical Advice for Making Money Reading Books Review: I give this 4 stars because, after reading 72 pages, I had found at least 7 typos. That said, I must say that his advice is clear and to the point. Also, he offers several good references.
Rating:  Summary: Make Money Reading Books Review: This book is full of lots of great information about various reading jobs. There's only one drawback: The most recent copyright is 1993! That means NO information on internet use and very little on word processing, etc., in relation to the book's subject. Bruce Fife may be retired, or perhaps even gone by now, but it would be wonderful if someone would revisit this book and update it. I would definitely buy an updated version!!

Review: When I first saw this book for sale, I thought it would be a rip off, so I researched and found it on several book sale web sites for $..., much less then the ... ads charge. I decided to take a chance, using a credit card in case it turned out to be a scam.Was I ever surprised! Not only is this THE REAL original book, ... this book gives more practical writing, formatting & freelance business setip advice and tips than 15 other 300+ page writing books combined! This book is worth every penny just for the included free resources alone--publishers, associations, mailing list companies for marketing one's services, an excellent bibloigraphy, formatting examples such as manuscript, resumes, cover and query letters, book reviews with how-to & usable examples, etc. Also included are FULL chapters with complete information on indexing, copy-editing, writing & selling book reviews, how to get published easy (and it IS presented so clearly ANYONE could get published within a month!), how to professionally proof-read, rates of pay for EACH service or task offered, and even tax & deduction tips I've never seen elsewhere! This book is a MUST have for any serious writer's reference shelf & I guarantee it will replace a stack of other so-called writer's how-to books.

What this book does is help the reader make money while enjoying the love of reading AND writing--whether reviewing, indexing, researching, translating, proof-reading or editing, etc.
