JUST DO IT!

No one can accuse Alexa Donne of the lack of flare. No wonder she calls it "Harsh Truth."
Hearing it gives me a new appreciation for my daughter. She spent hours helping me with tech stuff, reading through my drafts with a critical eye of an editor and a reader, asking questions, and making suggestions. Darling, you are amazing; thank you. 


I also want to thank my family and friends - the other Beta readers, for being so diligent and ready to help when I asked.  
Thank you all, you are the best! I'm thrilled to know and have you in my life. 


I thought it'd be prudent to include Alexa's disclaimer.
DISCLAIMER: this is just a bit of fun! While the core advice is 100% true, I'm dressing it up with a bit of exaggerated affect. I'm nice and I believe in you!

I've tested this method on many occasions on social media. Random accounts. Writers would vent in a post about a tough day receiving two or even three rejections. I always reply with what I learned from this video. Lo and behold, the feedback is fantastic. It's a "pick me up" when people need it the most. And the benefits are countless. The simplicity of all is mind-blowing.
