Readers Matter!

by MaryAnn Diorio, PhD, MFA

Dear Reader,

YOU MATTER! 

The theme of this blog is the profound connection between reader and writer.  If you've been following my posts, you will have seen that readers matter to an author. And they matter greatly!

To an author, readers are like the following:

__Hands and gloves.

__Sockets and plugs.

__Hearts and bodies.

__Brides and grooms.

__Pens and paper.

__Needles and thread.

__Peanut butter and jelly.

__Fish and chips.

__Research and development.

__Cops and robbers.

__Mosquitoes and nets.

__Tables and chairs.

__Baseballs and bats.

__Tom and Jerry.

__And on and on and on. :)

I think you get the picture. We writers NEED you readers. We are only half the equation without you.

And you are half the equation without us.

So, today I want to give a huge shout-out to all readers everywhere.  Especially to my readers who make my writing a joy.  You are always on my mind as I write. 

Thank you for choosing to read my books. Thank you for being a faithful supporter of my work. 

Thank you for supporting other writers proclaiming truth through their books. We need you.

Know this:  YOU MATTER!
