Hi Gil,
I apologize for the delay in getting back to you - busy at work and on holidays. But I would like to take the time to say thank you for your keen insight into a problem I have been fighting for nearly thirty years! Finally I am on the road to confidence - I can now feel comfortable showing my fingers in public. I can now scratch an itch!!!
Perhaps the way that I have reached this point is not the most common of ways given your method, but still I can certainly say that it was only from reading your book that I found the strength to stop.

Essentially, the night that I received your book I read it from cover to cover. By the time I reached the solution chapter, I was entirely convinced that you understood not only the physical habit of nail biting, but also the psychological impact that such a habit can impose on someone's life. The solution chapter though immediately lightened my mood!!! In fact I found myself laughing at your method - in fact not at the method, but at the simplicity of the solution that I knew would stop my nail biting for good!
So since this night, I have applied your method for no more than four days. No further application was necessary because I feel so much stronger knowing that I can stop. It seems that by simply knowing I can stop (using your method), I have the determination and motivation to keep the habit out - really for good!
It has now been two months. All is good, but I think further repair time is required to really have "normalized" nails - for the first time in my life I should note. I feel that they are getting stronger every week. I am looking forward to looking at them in one years time where the final marks of abuse will truly be behind us (me and my fingers).
Therefore I must say thank you! I wish you much success in the further sales of your book, and much success to those other nail biters that have yet to learn how easy it is to stop!!!
