Now I'm pretty forgiving when it comes to poor use of the English language on the internet, but you're launching a book here! Proof-read your shit! Your OP has colloquialisms, poor punctuation, dangling modifiers, the works. Even casual promotions on forums should be spiffy - after all, you're trying to stand out too, right?

It's rare that I'll say read a book on another completely different subject, but I think it kind of parallels the aspiring music producer
I was fortunate enough to win a copy of this during Ludum Dare 48 and honestly read it front to back in one sitting
The Game Jam Survival Guide
While this covers a game programming jam or competition a lot of it parallels what producers do and how to be more efficient and get noticed (which honestly can be applicable to any entertainment industry)
It can also be kind of compared to say a sample contest on here or a 48 hr contest on here and the techniques in this book could easily be adapted to music production (what's also funny is most people who partake in these contests make their own music as well)
anyways blah blah blah, good stuff to read and learn from
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
