Here's it, in a nutshell.
writing the book turned out to be mostly 1) easy and 2) fun, which I’ve always felt a little sheepish about, but into every life a little rain must fall. Write a book, it’s easy and fun and you’ll definitely make money from it. Probably. Possibly.

You're welcome.

I was actually quite willing to completely rewrite the book based on these notes, because I have no spine and would rather make strangers happy than maintain any sort of creative vision.

God bless Mallory Ortberg.
