I've gotten to know a number of readers from being online, and really treasure the time I've spent with them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love being in touch with my readers and fellow writers! It's just amazing to have such access to people.
I don't want to waste my readers' time ever. My readers are very important to me.
It's very nice to meet the people who read my books.
I've probably spent more time than any other brand reading every last comment. To listen to people the way you're able to online is very powerful.
I'm a voracious reader - I always have a book on the go and read for at least half an hour, usually more, every night.
I read and enjoy just about anything I can get my hands on.
I have the most loyal readers in the world.
Online is such a brilliant, brilliant way to connect with young readers - even if they just want to tweet, 'Hey, I read your book!' - that, absolutely, I connect with that. But I also treat writing as solitary and keep it to myself as long as I can.
Even if I only had 10 readers, I'd rather do the book for them than for a million readers online.
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.
