Powerful words

Also no writing today, as the vacation wrapped up.

Something very cool did happen though. Every day, I get notifications from Wattpad regarding THE MOUNTAIN DANCER. Usually, they are from people adding it to their various reading lists. Occasionally, it’ll be because someone voted on a chapter (akin to a Facebook like). More rarely, it’ll be a comment.

Usually the comment is short and in-line, meaning someone’s reacting to a specific line or passage. This super cool and encouraging! Even the votes and adds provide inspiration.

But today, I woke up to a comment from last night from someone who’d finished the whole story and left a tremendous, glowing review. They wanted more stories too. It still blows my mind that this is for something I made in late 2014 (and personally feel needs a rewrite and overhaul). It’s a reminder of the lasting power of words, and how this person’s 250 word comment is going to help fuel my next 100,000.

So, tired as I was from the weekend of good times, I floated on a bit of a cloud on the way back.
