I thought for this, I might share my favorite reader comments and why I love them.
“Henry combines excellent research and writing talent as she builds a story that includes lots of action, adventure, and intrigue along with bits of romance and the inner workings of bureaucracies.” – I pride myself on my research.
“
” – how cool would that be?“
” – research again! Different book.“
” – laughing, I think this reader used her crystal ball to spy on me in high school…LOL…and yes I later majored in history. All it takes is one good teacher.I think my all time favorite is this one, full disclosure, it’s from my nephew, age 13(when he wrote this)…
“I just wanted to let you know that I got a kindle for my graduation this year, and I hooked it up to my family account. I was scrolling through the my books section and I found your book, scripting the truth. This was yesterday. As of this morning at 6, I haven’t been able to put my kindle down. I’m on chapter 36, 73% through the book. It is truly a work of art, and I’m sad not a lot of people know about it. ”
Makes me cry every time I read it.
Having not officially published anything, this is how I feel about reading comments on my fics over at Archive Of Our Own. In fact, I started posting my first long, chaptered, novel length fanfiction recently because I needed that warm, glowy feeling to help keep me motivated! (Plus, once I’ve finished it I’m pretty sure I’ll feel up to working on one of my original novel ideas.)
