Readers Quotes

I’ve put everything I had and I’ve given my readers 120 percent, and that’s the truth Picture Quote #1

There are so many people who don’t know small towns exist. When I write, I want to give my readers two things: one is a sense of consolation, and two, I want to make them laugh Picture Quote #1

I don’t laugh that much, but I do like humorous books, and I like to entertain readers that way Picture Quote #1

I have no interest in writing confessions, in deliberately baring myself to my readers. I prefer to remain behind a screen Picture Quote #1

I’m a fan of meeting readers face to face, at reader events, where we’re able to sit down and take some time to talk Picture Quote #1

Even if I only had 10 readers, I’d rather do the book for them than for a million readers online Picture Quote #1

I’d like the reader to decide if he is willing to pay minute sums for content. I’d like the economics of web to be controlled between authors and readers, not advertiser Picture Quote #1

My first generation of young readers now have not only children, but some of them have grandchildren to whom they’re introducing their old passion Picture Quote #1

Girls are the best readers in the world. Reading is really a way of kind of escaping so deeply into yourself and pursuing your own thoughts within the construct of a story Picture Quote #1

I believe the most intricate plot won’t matter much to readers if they don’t care about the characters, especially in a series. So I try to focus hard on making each character, whether villain or hero, have an interesting flaw that readers can relate to Picture Quote #1

It’s not at all uncommon for a writer to get a ton of publicity for one book and then not get as much for the next one. I don’t worry about that because I try to worry about the one single part of the job I can control: the writing of the book. If I do that well, I feel, good tidings generally will follow and readers will stick with me Picture Quote #1

The nicest notes I’ve received from readers are those that tell me I’ve gotten them back into reading for entertainment. For me, there is no greater compliment Picture Quote #1

Even now I try to make each page compelling for the readers to get absorbed in the book Picture Quote #1

One key to the distinction between mystery and suspense writing involves the relative positions of hero and reader. In the ideal mystery novel, the readers is two steps behind the detective... The ideal suspense reader, on the other hand, is two steps ahead of the hero Picture Quote #1

Whenever I’ve been stuck on a project, it’s always brought me solace to the return to books that moved me in the past. It’s a nice way to get outside my own head; and it brings me back to one of the most important reasons I write at all: to bring some pleasure to readers, to make them think or feel Picture Quote #1

While editors and newspaper owners currently fret over shrinking readership and lost profits, they do the one thing that insures cutting their own throats; they keep reducing space for the one feature that attracts new young readers in the first place; the comic strips Picture Quote #1

It’s interesting with my blog, because it feels to me less like a blog and more like a forum, because my readers are so funny and leave hysterical comments. And I’m not being humble when I say that very often, the comments are so much better than the post originally was Picture Quote #1

My relationship with my readers is somewhat theatrical. One of the main things I try to do in my work is delight my readers Picture Quote #1

The only pressure I feel is to write good books. And to not replicate the previous book. Whether you have a thousand readers or a million readers it doesn’t change the pressure. I never feel tempted to give the reader what I think the reader wants Picture Quote #1

Write a nonfiction book, and be prepared for the legion of readers who are going to doubt your fact. But write a novel, and get ready for the world to assume every word is true Picture Quote #1

Writers themselves benefit from all helpful information about their task and methods. Readers, in turn, can have both their understanding and appreciation of literature enhanced by information about the writer’s work Picture Quote #1

One of my goals is to allow readers to see my characters and the world they inhabit as vividly as possible Picture Quote #1

Normally, I have a lot of alpha readers on my books. These are people that, once I finish a novel, I let them look at it and give me a reader response Picture Quote #1

As a writer, I have readers who will have a range of political views. I don’t think they look to me for political guidance Picture Quote #1

Dialogue is the place that books are most alive and forge the most direct connection with readers. It is also where we as writers discover our characters and allow them to become real Picture Quote #1

I don’t write to give joy to readers but to give them a conscience Picture Quote #1

I think of every book as a single entity, and some have later gone on to become a series, often at the request of readers Picture Quote #1

I think when you’ve had success, publishers and reviewers and readers are willing to let you try something new if you’ve already proven yourself. They’re excited about what you’re doing, you have people interested in it, and actually waiting for it. It’s empowering Picture Quote #1

Readers have actually changed the way I’ve done things, changed the course of my career even, about four or five times. Just from reader feedback Picture Quote #1

I think that’s a hallmark of a really good story that it has readers that it speaks to more than others Picture Quote #1
