Three things I need to share

[truepenny]

"Stand By Me" by (RED)WIRE

This? Is amazing.

2. It's John M. Ford's birthday. Mike, wherever you are, I hope your birthday celebration is epic.

3. My gratitude. To everyone who reads my books. Everyone who buys a copy. Everyone who checks a copy out of the library. To everyone who blogs about my books or reviews them. Even if your review isn't positive, you're still taking the time to talk about my books, and I appreciate that. To every librarian who gets his/her library to buy my books. To every bookseller who hand-sells my books. To everyone who tells their friends to read my books or loans their copies out or buys my books as gifts. Seriously. I am deeply, deeply grateful to each and every one of you, and I feel like I really need to say that.

So, thank you. There are some really awful parts of being a writer, but you all are one of the things that make it worthwhile.

That video really IS amazing. I loved it. Thanks for sharing! I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of your books that I have read. I appreciate the fact that not only do you share your gift with your fans, but you take the time to personally answer our emails and journal queries and the question and answer sessions were absolutely wonderful. While I can understand that you must be careful, I know that I and many others are grateful that you take the time and effort to keep in touch and show you care. Thanks!
