What is your favorite aspect of being a writer?
This is a really fun question, and one that's easy to answer. My favorite part is getting sucked into a story that I find really interesting and then getting feedback/validation from a fan that someone else got sucked into it too. That feeling is just super awesome, and yes I save all of my fan mail.

Getting sucked in is better than sucking!
ReplyDeleteIt is all about connecting with someone who gets it.
I think it's awesome that you received fan mail.
ReplyDeleteSuccinct.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great description.
ReplyDeleteHolding people in the grip of your story makes me write. More than anything I like to entertain.
ReplyDeleteI want to revive the practice of receiving snail mail!
ReplyDeleteThat is a good feeling, like your readers are in tune with you and got what you were trying to do.
ReplyDeleteThat's the best. Getting sucked in.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I love it when the writing just sucks me in. I love all my characters, and love testing them with problems, or moral dilemmas.
ReplyDeleteI love reading when the worlds and characters suck me in too.
You have to hold onto the fan mail, right? So that when a negative review comes in, or a rejection, you can go back to that mail and keep yourself afloat.
