For the Love of: Appreciative Readers

Since the release of my first book, More, I’ve heard from many wonderful readers via email, Facebook, Twitter, various groups, blogs, and other sites. It’s amazing to me how many people take the time to let a writer know a little something about the experience of reading a book.

So today, I wanted to send out a message of thanks to everyone who takes the time to let authors know which books you’ve enjoyed and why. I can tell you, it means a lot to the writer. We spend so much time in our heads, in our writing caves, editing and polishing a story that means something special to us. For you to take a moment and offer a compliment or word of encouragement is pretty damn cool to me. Thank you, all!

Side note: I try to respond to all emails (except the obvious spam). If you send me something, and I don’t get back to you in a week or two, I probably didn’t get your message. Feel free to send again or use my contact form.

Have a great weekend!
Sloan

  1. I figure that if something someone wrote made me happy, at least I can acknowledge their hard work ;)…..I may not be able to articulate all a book has made me feel, but I hope you know how truly amazed I am at the obvious love and thought that went into MORE…and I cant wait for MORE from the guys, as well as what is next from you Sloan….you have a talent, and I appreciate being able to reap the rewards…..please continue writing.

  2. E.H: Thanks!! I’m so glad you enjoyed More. As I said in the post, it’s nice to not only hear what you think, but know you took the time to say something. It’s appreciated!

    Elaine: What wonderful remarks. Thanks! I truly appreciate hearing from readers like you who enjoyed something I loved writing.

    FYI – I just finished an outline for More 2 (a new story in Richard’s POV). Not sure if it’ll be a go yet, but I hope to write it after my next project or two. I’m writing Walter’s story next (titled Trapped).
