I really enjoyed reading this essay and agree with the conclusion. The writer is the reader. If I wasn’t interested in reading everything I’ve written so far, I wouldn’t have bothered to write them at all. It’s a miracle of serendipity when it turns out I’m not the only reader interested in reading what I’ve written, which I suspect is true of other writers.
And happy, happy belated birthday Ehea. May your words find a home in as many minds as necessary.

Yes that’s exactly how I feel too- we write to please ourselves first. ✨And thank you so much for the wishes! 💕🤗
