Allworth Press, 2005

Extremely helpful
As a graphic design student about to graduate into the real world, I've been at the verge of a nervous breakdown trying to figure out what I'm going to need to do to get a good job.

Wiley, 2005

What a great book.
I haven't even finished reading this book yet and am logging on to tell students, interns, and all people new to the ad biz, buy this book. Buy it even before you buy the one I wrote ("Hey Whipple, Squeeze This. - A Guide To Creating Great Ads"). I'm serious. Well, okay, buy this one first. But then buy TWO copies of "Hey Whipple."

Virtualbookworm.com Publishing, 2005

An honest how - to- book that makes sense
I purchased this book with several other titles on the same subject. If I had to pick only one of them this would be the book. Out of the books I've read this is the only one that gives you a solid plan and explains step by step how to make it work. A must read for any artist who is interested in a plan for making a living making and selling their art.

I'm not exactly a blank slate, but I certainly don't remember very much -- maybe 35 kanji (numbers, sun, moon, etc.) and roughly 85% of the kana. With what basic knowledge of Japanese sentence structure, common particles, and a few verb-ending constructions (v~te, v~tari, v~nakareba, v~tai ...

This book is more important for actors than any acting class in LA or New York City. THANKS MICHAEL ...
